Overview
The AT-S70 management software is intended for the Converteon™
Series chassis. The software is used to monitor and adjust the operating
parameters of a chassis. Some of the functions you can perform with the
software include:
ˆ Enable and disable ports
ˆ Configure port parameters, such as speed and duplex mode
ˆ Assign an Internet Protocol (IP) address and subnet mask
ˆ Access OAM information and statistics
ˆ Download and upload image and configuration files
ˆ Configure port security
The AT-S70 management software comes pre-installed on the
AT-CV5M01 Control Processor Module (CPM) with default settings for all
operating parameters. If the default settings are adequate for your
network, you can use the chassis as an unmanaged chassis simply by
connecting the unit to your network, as explained in the hardware
installation guide, and powering ON the device.
Note
The default settings for the management software can be found in
the Appendix A, “AT-S70 Default Settings” on page 131.
The AT-S70 management software and the management interface simplify
the task of monitoring and managing the Converteon™ chassis and
modules. This easy-to-use menu-oriented interface, which is provided by
the AT-S70 management software, enables you to configure and manage
all of the modules installed in the AT-CV5000 chassis.
There are three different ways to access the management software on a
Converteon™ chassis. These methods are referred to in this guide as
management session as listed below:
ˆ Local management session
ˆ Telnet management session
ˆ SNMP management session
