MANAGEMENT
4.1 Overview
This chapter describes the functionality of the Troposcatter Outdoor Ampifier (TRP500) Ethernet
(HTTP) Interface. This interface is generally modeled after Comtech EF Data’s other Solid State
Power Amplifier product lines.
For detailed descriptions of the configuration parameters featured on the individual Web pages
depicted in this section, refer to the REMOTE CONTROL Specifications tables found in Appendix
B. REMOTE CONTROL.
4.2 Ethernet Management Interface Protocols
The TRP500 100BaseT/10BaseTx Ethernet Management Interface supports three (3) different
management protocols:
• SNMP with public and private MIB
• Telnet interface for remote product M&C
• Web Server interface for complete product management
4.3 SNMP Interface
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application-layer protocol designed to
facilitate the exchange of management information between network devices. The TRP500
SNMP agent supports both SNMPv1 and v2c.
IMPORTANT
For proper SNMP operation, the TRP500 MIB files must be used with the
associated version of the TRP500 M&C. Please refer to the TRP500 FW Release
Notes for information on the required FW/SW compatibility.
