ACCESSING THE MIB NAVIGATOR

The MIB Navigator function resides on your Cabletron device (EMM-E6,

using a Telnet connection.

To access the MIB Navigator, perform the following actions from a PC or
workstation:

key.

The telnet > prompt will appear.

2. At the telnet > prompt enter open and the IP address of the device

followed by pressing the Return key, i.e.,

telnet> open 123.231.213.132

3. The following messages will appear:

.Trying 123.231.213.132

4. Enter your password at the Password

key. For security reasons, the password does not display when typed.
