Using a Basic System

After installing a Basic System, the SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise server and
polling agents will start automatically when you log on to Windows NT.
Your network will be automatically discovered and added to the server
map. SNMP and IP devices will be polled using IP Ping polling and device
status will be added to the map and event log file.

Login to the Server

Locate the SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise icon in the Windows NT Task Bar and
click on it to bring the SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise server to the foreground. Use
the SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise File/Login command to login to the server. Press
the OK button at the displayed login dialog.

At this point you should see some of your network devices displayed on the
top-level submap view window. Most probably, the router and top-level
icons will be shown in green, indicating that they are responding properly.

Console Control Windows

SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise includes a Selection Tool window for selecting
objects from one of several databases. The selection tool is a tabbed dialog
box that occupies the left side of the main frame window. The selection
tool has five tabs, as described in the following table:

Selection Tab

Description

Map Database

Map object database, including devices, submaps,
links and networks.

MIB Database

Compile SNMP MIBs, Custom Tables and
Custom MIB Expressions.

Trend Reports

procedures and scheduled reports.

Event Action Filters

Event filters used to determine what happens
when an event is received.

Custom Menus

Custom menus that appear in the Manage, Tools,
and Help SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise menus.

After selecting an object in one of the selection trees, you can perform
actions on that object using SNMPc 5.0 Enterprise frame menus or using a
right-click popup menu.
