Preparing the Switch for Management You will need to make sure that your switch is properly set up before you can use the management module: ♦ Ensure that the switch is either connected to the same network as the network management station, or that it is connected using the SLIP protocol using the RS-232C console port. ♦ Ensure that the switch's TCP/IP settings are set properly. If the switch is on the same local network, the network portion of the switch's IP address needs to be the same as that of the network management station. If they are on separate LANs, the TCP/IP gateway (router) field of both the switch and the router need to be set properly so that information can be routed properly between the switch and the management station. For more information about these and other items, consult the DES-3226 hardware User's Guide. Installing the Module Software Take the following steps to install the module on your network management system: D-View 1. Exit D-View if you are running it. 2. Insert the DES-3226 disk into your system's CD-ROM drive. 3. Under Windows 98, choose Run... from the Start menu on the taskbar. When the dialog box appears, type the pathname of the setup.exe program (D:\Setup). 6 Installing the Management Module

Installing the Management Module
Preparing the Switch for Management
You will need to make sure that your switch is properly set up before you can
use the management module:
Ensure that the switch is either connected to the same network as the
network management station, or that it is connected using the SLIP
protocol using the RS-232C console port.
Ensure that the switch’s TCP/IP settings are set properly. If the switch is
on the same local network, the network portion of the switch’s IP
address needs to be the same as that of the network management station.
If they are on separate LANs, the TCP/IP gateway (router) field of both
the switch and the router need to be set properly so that information can
be routed properly between the switch and the management station.
