967.0. "SNMP manager for PC ?" by UTOPIE::BRAUN_R () Fri Apr 11 1997 14:23

    Hi all,
    
    I'm new to Gigaswitch, so please apologize...
    
    As far as I know, I need a SNMP manager, such like Netview or any other
    of these huge software packages on a UNIX (or NT-system) to change any
    values on a Gigaswitch, that cannot be set via Clearvisn or the
    console.
    
    Is there any simple configuration tool (also with some restrictions,
    e.g. comfort) from a PC, e.g. with WIN95 on a notebook ?
    
    CMU-utilities like snmpset, based on Winsocks ? Public Domain ?
    Shareware ?
    
    This would be nice to do the configuration near the physical
    Gigaswitch, as this sometimes better in multisite-configurations.
    
    We would like to configure the advanced features of 3.1 (e.g.
    multiple spanning tree) 
    
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    
    Thanks,
    Ralph

	I ran into the same problem recently. I got ahold of ManageWorks, it does the trick for me. See http://doofus.ako.dec.com for kit. You will have to load the GS/FDDI V3.1 mibs. It contains the GS/FDDI mib V1.3, which is a bit old. Brad
967.2	internal application error	UTOPIE::BRAUN_R		`Tue Apr 15 1997 16:01`	23
	From the Manageworks-conference (NOTED::MWDEV) Note 260.0 internal application error No replies UTOPIE::BRAUN_R 12 lines 15-APR-1997 14:31 Hi, I've installed MW2.2 on NT 4.0, 32MB, 200Meg diskspace free. I'm unable to install any MIB, the files are not read-only and the error message is always an (immediate) "internal application error". Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks, Ralph
967.3		CSC32::bngpc.cxo.dec.com::goodwin	Brad Goodwn - NSIS	`Tue Apr 15 1997 16:35`	6
	Ralph, I was able to the the GIGAswitch V3.1 Mib to compile without any problems, but I was using Win95, not NT. Brad

967.5	ServerWorks?!	NNTPD::"[email protected]"	Lodewijk van den Berg	`Mon May 05 1997 11:35`	14
	Hi, I uses ManageWORKS but also installed the ServerWORKS parts for managing the Prioris line Boxes. But If I want to update the MIBs for the GIGAswitch the complete MIB database will become a mess. If I select a new MIB group for the GIGAswitch also all kind of serverwork related entries will be found. o I have two setups now. One for manageing the GIGAswitches and one for managing the Priorisses? Do they use the same MIB strings?!?! Suggestions? Lodewijk [Posted by WWW Notes gateway]
