Getting Started

The AT-S47 Management Software and the management interface
simplify the task of monitoring and managing your Allied Telesyn
AT-WD1008 Wavelength Division Multiplexer. The interface, which
comes pre-installed on the AT-WDM02 Management Module along with
the AT-S47 software, enables you to manage the multiplexer through
easy-to-use menus or with command line interface (CLI) commands.

To actively manage a multiplexer, such as to change or adjust the
operating parameters, you must access the AT-S47 Management
Software on the AT-WDM02 Management Module. There are three
different ways to access the management software on an AT-WD1008
multiplexer. This guide refers to the access methods as management
sessions. The three types of management sessions are:

❑ Local Management Session
❑ Telnet Management Session
❑ SNMP Management Session

The following sections in this chapter briefly describe each type of
management session and how to start a management session.
