Heelo,
Could someone please tell me how to set the tcp/ip address on
a DECconcentrator to enable it to be SNMP managemable?
We have used DECndu to down line load V 3.1a to the concentrator
and have all the installation documenation but can't seem to find
how to set the TCP/IP address anywhere!!
THank you and regards,
Peter Lamb

You set the IP address via the out-of-band management port. Luc | |||||

You should find everything you need in -
TNPUBS::$1$DUA25:[PUBLIC.SNMP]SNMP_AGENT_CONFIG.PS;1

Nope! I printed this out and while it mentions that you
can use either bootp or the out of band port to do this
it does not tell you how.

| 921.4 | 3 ways to do it | QUIVER::WALTER | Wed Apr 07 1993 12:54 | 20 | |
There are 3 ways to load the IP Address:
1. Out of band management - Your concentrator must have the 25 pin
serial connector on the box to use OBM. From the OBM menu on the
terminal, you choose Set IP Address. Pretty straight forward.
2. RBMS protocol - An NMS that uses the RBMS protocol (such as ELMS or
DECmcc) can set the IP address. From the DECmcc command line, it's
mcc> set concentrator <name> ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
3. bootp - If the concentrator does not have an IP address loaded, it
will send out a bootp request once per minute to the broadcast address.
You must configure a unix system to respond to bootp requests, and you
must add the concentrator's network address and ip address to the
"bootptab" file (in the \etc directory, maybe?). It should be explained
at length in the appropriate "man page" on the unix system.
