ezRemote Manager User Manual List View Appendix A: Broadcast SNMP and Router Configuration This appendix discusses router/switch configuration issues with respect to automatically locating Neoware appliances across subnetted networks. ezRemote Manager access to separate subnets through Cisco routers ezRemote Manager uses SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) broadcasts to automatically locate Neoware appliances on your network (when you click on the Locate button or use the Actions | Locate menu item). Customers with large, segmented networks may need to make configuration adjustments (in their routers) to use the automatic location function for appliances, located on subnets different from the one on which the ezRemote Manager server is located. For ezRemote Manager to locate and display information about Neoware appliances (that are running on a subnet different from the one on which the ezRemote Manager server is running), two conditions must be met: • A route must be defined from the server that will be hosting ezRemote Manager to the relevant router. • The router must be configured to allow SNMP directed broadcasts through to the subnet. For the following examples: • IP Address of ezRemote Manager server: • IP Address of Cisco router: • Class A subnet where appliances are located: 10.30.3.16 10.30.1.l 100.0.0.0 79

Appendix A: Broadcast SNMP
and Router Configuration
This appendix discusses router/switch configuration issues with
respect to automatically locating Neoware appliances across sub-
netted networks.
ezRemote Manager access to separate subnets through Cisco routers
ezRemote Manager uses SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol) broadcasts to automatically locate Neoware appliances
on your network (when you click on the Locate button or use the
Actions | Locate menu item). Customers with large, segmented net-
works may need to make configuration adjustments (in their rout-
ers) to use the automatic location function for appliances, located
on subnets different from the one on which the ezRemote Manager
server is located.
For ezRemote Manager to locate and display information about
Neoware appliances (that are running on a subnet different from the
one on which the ezRemote Manager server is running), two condi-
tions must be met:
A route must be defined from the server that will be hosting
ezRemote Manager to the relevant router.
The router must be configured to allow SNMP directed broad-
casts through to the subnet.
For the following examples:
IP Address of ezRemote Manager server:
10.30.3.16
IP Address of Cisco router:
10.30.1.l
Class A subnet where appliances are located:
100.0.0.0
