  2. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerModule contents • ORiNOCO PRO Manager - What is it • Installing ORiNOCO PRO Manager • Using ORiNOCO PRO Manager

  3. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerWhat is it • Network management application added to HP OpenView to allow configuration and management of a large group of AP systems • Contains functionality of ORiNOCO AP Manager + enhanced functions • network map • multiple AP management

  4. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerWhat is it • Add-on to HP OpenView and running on • Unix version • NT version • Future: platform independent version WM/Pro • web browser based • Sun Solaris version in development

  5. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerWhat is it • Basic windows, maps & submaps provided by HP OpenView • Other UI components provided using Tcl/Tk • Maps have look-and-feel of standard HP OpenView Network Node Manager (NNM) • Map = set of related objects and submaps providing graphical and hierarchical presentation of the network and its subsystems

  6. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerNNM Submaps • Sub-map displays logical partitioning of networks and gateways into connected symbols • Sub-map represents physical topology network • network segments • gateways (routers) • (multi-port) repeaters (hubs) • bridges (incl. AP-500/AP-1000 systems) • APs shown with AP icon • Panner zooms in on different area submap

  10. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerInstallation - Updating the “oid_to_sym” file 1. To allow HP OpenView to recognize the AP-500 or AP-1000, the AP Object Identifier has to be added to the appropriate file 2. Open the “oid_to_sym” file in the “\conf” subdirectory of the folder where HP OpenView has been installed 3. Add to this file the line: 1.3.6.1.4.1.762.2:Connector:WavePOINT-II # Lucent WavePOINT-II Bridge 4. Restart HP OpenView NNM service 5. Register the fields related to the ORiNOCO PRO Manager by typing at the prompt: ovw -fields

  11. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerInstallation (UNIX) 1. Log on to the UNIX workstation as “root” 2. Create a directory for the ORiNOCO PRO Manager files 3. Copy the files “INSTALL” and “WaveMANAGER.tar.z” from the CD-ROM to the directory just created 4. Run the “INSTALL” script

  12. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerStarting the program • Start HP OpenView • Open the HP OpenView Network Node Manager • An menu item has been added to the menu bar on the top labeled WaveMANAGER/PRO • Clicking this menu show the item “Show WavePOINTs” • Clicking this item opens a window with selected APs

  13. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerShowing APs • APs can be displayed by IP address or by name. • Pointing to the “Screen” menu and selecting “WavePOINT-II label”, allows a selecting between: • IP-Address • System Name • The System name is the name stored in the SNMP parameters of the AP

  14. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerSelecting AP devices • Modifying or viewing parameters of a device requires the device to be selected • Click the AP icon to select it (Icon gets surrounded with gray rectangle) • Selecting multiple APs: • Click the Icons, with CTRL key depressed • Drag a rectangle around them

  15. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerHighlighting AP devices (versus selecting) • HP OpenView highlights devices based on set criteria (e.g. part of a given subnet) • ORiNOCO PRO Manager can highlight devices by specifying their IP address • To modify and access highlighted devices, they need to be selected: “Highlight” … “Select Highlighted”

  16. ORiNOCO PRO Manager Multiple AP update • Load new software functionality to multiple AP devices in one go • Load common parameters to multiple AP devices in one go: • Access Control Table • WEP key • Network Name • Bridging setting • Can be executed immediately or scheduled for a later time

  17. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerChanging common AP parameters • Updating the parameters for the RADIUS Access Control function: • IP Address of the primary and secondary RADIUS server • Password used during the authentication

  18. ORiNOCO PRO ManagerChanging common AP parameters • Setting / changing: • Network Name • Medium reservation • DTIM period • Multi-cast rate • Distance between APs
