20 Installation ELH100-12/24TX

2. Connect one end of the interface cable directly to the Agent Module’s

console port and tighten the retaining screws.

3. Connect the other end of the interface cable to a terminal (in some

instances, an adapter may be required to make this connection).

4. From your terminal, start the terminal emulation program.

5. Configure the terminal to the following communication settings:

VT100 emulation, 9600 baud, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no flow

control, ASCII character set.

Remote Management via the Console Port

Configure the Hub Site - Connect the Agent Module’s DB-9 serial port

to the modem’s serial port using standard cabling. For most modems

using a 25-pin port, you will have to provide an RS-232 cable with a 9-pin

connector on one end and a 25-pin connection on the other end. You do

not have to set the modem at the hub’s site, because the hub will

automatically configure it to auto-answer mode.

Configure the Remote Site - At the remote site, connect the PC’s COM

port (COM 1~4) to the modem’s serial port. Set terminal emulation type to

VT100, specify the port used by your PC (i.e., COM 1~4), then set

communications to 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, 9600 bps, and no flow

control.

In-Band Connections

Prior to accessing the Agent Module via a network connection, you must

configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway

using an out-of-band connection or the BOOTP protocol.

Telnet Connection - Prior to accessing the Agent Module via an in-band

Telnet connection, you must configure it with a valid IP address, subnet

mask, and default gateway using an out-of-band connection or the

BOOTP protocol. After configuring the hub’s IP parameters, you can

access the on-board configuration program from anywhere within the

attached network

In-Band Network Connection - The on-board configuration program can

be accessed using Telnet from any computer attached to the network.

The hub and stack can also be managed by any computer using a web

browser (Internet Explorer 3.0 or above, or Netscape Navigator 3.0 or

above), or from a network computer using third-party network

management software.

The Agent Module will automatically issue BOOTP re-

quests if the IP address is set to "0.0.0.0". BOOTP is

disabled if a valid IP address has been set. Refer to

System Configuration Menu on page 33.
