Connecting via Telnet

You can connect to the ELH100-12/24TX hub from a remote location

using the Telnet application. This application allows you to establish in-

band access to the console menus.

To connect to the ELH100-12/24TX hub via Telnet, do the following:

1. Assign an IP address using the System Configuration Menu.

2. Log in to the ELH100-12/24TX hub via Telnet using the configured IP

address.

Setting SNMP Management Access

Access to the ELH100-12/24TX hub through SNMP is controlled by

community names. The community names set for the hub must match

those used by the SNMP management station for successful

communicationtooccur.Youcanassignuptofivecommunitynamesto

the hub using READ/WRITE or READ ONLY access. The default

community name is “public,” and provides read/write access to the hub.

The ELH100-12/24TX hub can send SNMP messages, called traps, to

SNMP management stations when an important event occurs with the

hub. The hub allows up to 10 destinations to be configured for these trap

messages to be sent.

To configure SNMP access for the hub, do the following:

1. Select SNMP Configuration Menu from the Main Menu.

2. Select SNMP Communities from the SNMP Configuration Menu.

3. Specify a Community Name (you are permitted to enter from one to

10 characters), select the desired read/write access community

name, and set Status to Enabled.

4. Select one or more Trap Destination entries from the menu, enter the

appropriate IP addresses, and set Status to Enabled.

6. For each trap destination entered, a corresponding community name

should be entered. (This community name must be defined in the

SNMP Communities Menu.)
