6.2 Ethernet Management Interface Protocols
The user PC facilitates access to Ethernet‐based remote monitor and control (M&C) of the
CDM‐750 through three separately‐operated protocols:
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This non‐secure interface requires a user‐
supplied Network Management System (NMS) and a user‐supplied Management Information
Base (MIB) File Browser.
• Telnet Interface. This non‐secure interface is accessed via Windows Command‐line or a user‐
supplied terminal emulation program, such as HyperTerminal, installed on the user PC.
• CDM‐750 Web Server (HTTP) Interface. This non‐secure interface requires a compatible user‐
supplied Web browser such as Internet Explorer.
6.3 SNMP Interface
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Internet‐standard protocol for
managing devices on IP networks. An SNMP‐managed network consists of three key
components:
• The managed device. This includes the CDM‐750 Advanced High‐Speed Trunking
Modem.
• The SNMP Agent. This is the software that runs on the CDM‐750. The CDM‐750 SNMP
Agent supports both SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c.
• The user‐supplied Network Management System (NMS). This is the software that runs
on the manager.
