Chapter 3
Software Management Through VT100
You can manage the system with VT100 Terminal Emulation through the communication port on
the DMM, which is accessible by a Telnet session, HyperTerminal or similar terminal emulation
software or a standard SNMP network manager.
Setting Up for Network Management
Typically, the DMM runs within the network on an Ethernet connection, communicating with
your Network Management Platform.
Set Up the Network Management Platform
You must run several Management Information Bases (MIBs) on your Network Management
Platform in order to successfully manage this module. Before you start, check that these
industry-standard MIBs are loaded:
• standard.mib
• rfc1213.mib
In addition, load Cp.mib, which supports all Canoga Perkins products; for assistance, contact
your technical support person.
Set Up the PC for Terminal Emulation
When setting up VT100 sessions, Canoga Perkins suggests that you use HyperTerminal for your
first session. You must set up TCP/IP before you can use Telnet. For details on using your
terminal emulation software, see the documentation for your software. Set up these options:
• After you boot your PC, plug a DE-9 straight-through serial cable into the EIA-232 port on
the DMM and the serial port on the PC or terminal.
• On the DMM, set the MDM/TRM switch to TRM.
• Verify that the COM Properties for your terminal emulation software are set to these values:
• Bits per second: 19200
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
• Emulation: VT100
