Revision 9
F.7 Remote Monitor and Control via SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the most widely used protocol for network
management available today. It provides a secure, open network standard whereby a PC with a
MIB Browser can be used to monitor and control almost any Cisco router, gateway, or Radyne
modem. And because the Enhanced Ethernet Interface offers a multi-port Ethernet interface and
daisy chain capability, every modem, even those in complex point to multi-point systems, can be
easily controlled from one central location. All without requiring extensive network setup or
additional equipment at every remote site.
Figure F-6 illustrates complete Monitor and Control of all Radyne equipment from a centrally
located PC at the Hub.
