FOXMAN‑UN Commissioning Overview
Once the FOXMAN‑UN software is successfully installed, it can be started and commissioned as follows:
1 Connect the workstation port(s) to the Gateway NE(s) of the network(s) to be managed. Make sure that a possible firewall is suitably configured so as to allow agent-NE communication.
2 Start the NEM Login.
3 From the NEM Login dialog, click on the gear icon, add a server machine and click on “Manage”. Use the
Remote Admin Tool (RAT) to check the server state, i.e., that the base and core services are active (running).
4 Log in to start the FOXMAN‑UN client.
5 If the NEM Login is successful, the
NEM Desktop will be presented.
6 Start the
NEM Configurator and create the
agents that are necessary to provide the communication interfaces to the NEs.
7 Create (or discover) the NEs for each agent, which will cause an automatic upload of the configuration and the inventory of NEs present in the network.
