\uc1\pard\nowidctlpar\ulnone\b\f0\fs20 1) Introduction:\par
\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b0\fs24 DVS-NMS is a simple and robust network =
management software for comprehensive management of SNMP based networks. =
It is based on SNMPv2 protocol.\par
\par
\cf1 Architecture\par
\cf0\par
DVS-NMS system is based on client-server architecture. So, it has got =
two distinct modules - DVS-NMS Server and DVS-NMS Client. Both of these =
can reside on same machine or can reside on different machines.\par
\pard\sb240\sa60\keepn\nowidctlpar\f1 DVS-NMS Server\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\f0\par
This piece of software communicates with the different SNMP agents. It =
collects up the information from the SNMP agents and then sends this =
information to DVS-NMS Client based on users query. \par
\par
\pard\sb240\sa60\keepn\nowidctlpar\f1 DVS-NMS Client\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\f0 This module communicates with the DVS-NMS Server =
using a TCP/IP based messaging interface\par
\cf1\par
\b 2) Installation\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar\cf0\par
Requirements\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b0 DVS-NMS Server: Pentium (or higher) system with =
32 MB RAM or higher. Running Windows NT or Windows 95 or Windows 98 or =
Linux.\par
DVS-NMS Client: As the code is written in Java and can run on any =
platform supporting Java. Also it require \ldblquote JAVA Runtime =
Environment\rdblquote  to work. It comes with the \ldblquote Java =
Development Kit\rdblquote  or user can install it separately. It is =
available for free and can be downloaded from =
http://www.java.sun.com/products/jdk1.2/jre/index.html.\fs20\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\fs24\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar\b Installation\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\b0\f2\par
\b Server:\par
\b0 Go to cd\\ server and run setup.exe\f0\par
\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj Setup will ask the destination directory to install =
the program and then will install the server program.\par
\par
\b Note: \b0 By default the server will be installed in \ldblquote =
C:\\Program Files\\DVS-NMS\\Server\rdblquote  directory.\par
\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\b Client:\par
\b0 Run the following commands to install the DVS-NMS Client:-\f2 =
cd\\client\\setup.exe\f0\par
\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj Setup will ask the destination directory to install =
the program and then will install the client program.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b Note: \b0 By default the client will be installed =
in \ldblquote C:\\Program Files\\DVS-NMS\\Client\rdblquote  =
directory.\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar Configuration of Server\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\fs20\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\fs24 The username and corresponding password needs =
to be added for all those users (network administrators) who will be =
having rights to do SNMP SET, which can change the configuration at SNMP =
agents. These usernames and passwords are stored in a text file named =
\ldblquote auth.txt\rdblquote  in the server installation directory. =
Usernames and their passwords can be added manually in the file, by =
editing the file using any text editor such as NOTEPAD. The example file =
is enclosed below:\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\par
netadmin1 qwerty1\par
netadmin2 qwerty2\par
\par
where netadmin1 and netadmin2 are usernames and qwerty1 and qwerty2 are =
passwords.\par
\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar\b Configuration of Client\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b0 Client needs to be provided with the IP address =
of the machine on which DVS-NMS server is running. If both the server =
and the client run on same machine, no configuration is required because =
the client has been configured for localhost by default. \par
\par
If server is running on the machine other than localhost then client =
when started ask for the \ldblquote IP Address\rdblquote  of the machine =
on which server is running. And ask for restart of the client.\par
\par
Also, configuration of the IP Address of the server can be done through =
\ldblquote Option\rdblquote  in Menu of the Client. But it requires =
restart of the client to communicate with changed server.\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar\b\fs32\par
\fs24 RUNNING\par
\ul\par
\ulnone Running the Server\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b0\par
To run DVS-NMS Server go to Start->Programs->DVS-NMS Server. Click on =
\ldblquote DVS-NMS Server\rdblquote . This will open a console window, =
which shows DVS-NMS Server is running.\par
\par
\b Note:\b0  Please start the NMS server before starting the NMS =
client.\b\par
\par
\pard\keepn\nowidctlpar Running the Client\par
\pard\nowidctlpar\qj\b0 Assuming you have already installed \ldblquote =
JAVA Runtime Environment\rdblquote .\par
\par
To run DVS-NMS Client go to Start->Programs->DVS-NMS Client. Click on =
\ldblquote DVS-NMS Client\rdblquote . This should start your client.\par
\par
When client starts, it will try to connect to the DVS-NMS server. Once =
the connection is successful, the user interface will be displayed at =
the client side; otherwise, it will display message to start DVS-NMS =
Server. The IP Address of the DVS-NMS Server by default is \ldblquote =
localhost\rdblquote . User can give the IP Address of the machine (in =
case, if server is not running on the localhost) in the text box =
provided by the error message and then have to restart the client.\par
