Verilink SCM

Accessing Nodes

Remote nodes are accessible through SNMP, or through M1-3 or
QUAD T1 inband access.

Setup

Requirements

SNMP

Verilink supplies both standard and proprietary MIBs for SNMP
management. These are provided as text files that are included on
this CD-ROM. Specific information on MIBs for the SCM, as well as
other modules, is covered in the manual,

SNMP Management

.

M1-3

The M1-3 can use a portion of the DS3 framing overhead to allow a
session to a far-end SCM. Through this method it can create a
record of a far-end node in the SCM database of remote nodes. See

“Module-Specific Menus”

in Chapter 3.

QUAD T1

The QUAD T1 can use a portion of facility data link framing for
inband. This is available in ESF mode only.

To access the node selection submenu, use the S) node selection
option on the Administration Menu.

R) reset card

NOT reload from partition bank. Do not

use reset to test firmware upgrades.

or fails. The time varies with module

type, slot number, and number of

shelves from 30 seconds to several

minutes.
