1.3 Overview of LoopView, Castle Rock and TCP/IP LoopView is a GUI (grapical user interface) program that is designed to be used in conjunction with Castle Rock SNMPc5 or later versions. This Castle Rock program comes in different formats, as explained below. You must pick the appropriate edition for your system reqirements when selecting Castle Rock SNMPc.. In order to use the Castle Rock SNMPc program your computer must have a Windows compliant TCP/IP stack like that included in Windows 95,98, NT and 2000.

1.2.1 Castle Rock SNMPc Product Options SNMPc 5.0 includes the three product options described below. Choose the option that best suits your system reqiremelnts.

1.2.1.1 SNMPc Enterprise Edition

This is the base system for a scalable multi-user environment. Enterprise Edition includes the SNMPc Server license, one Remote Console license, and one Remote Poller license. This system can be used simultaneously by one user at the server system and by another user at a Remote Console system. The Remote Poller can be used to extend the polling capabilities to a remote polling site.

1.2.1.2 SNMPc Remote Access Extension

This is a license only option for the Enterprise Edition. This option allows an unlimited number of Remote Console users and Remote Polling agents. It also provides JAVA Console support. When using this option, you must install the server under Windows NT or 2000 only..

1.2.1.3 SNMPc Workgroup Edition

This is a single user version for managing small to medium sized networks. The Workgroup Edition can be used on Windows 2000, NT, and 98 systems. All components run on a single system and support one user. The map database size is limited to 1000 objects. The Workgroup Edition does not include advanced reporting functions. The following table shows the differences between the three product options:

Table 1- 1 Castle Rock SNMPc Options

Chapter 2 Software Installation

4

2 SOFTWARE INSTALLATION The software installation procedure has two parts: Castle Rock software installation and LoopView software installation. The Castle Rock software is installed first. Before you load the Castle Rock software, make sure that your computer has a loaded TCP/IP stack. Instructions follow in the sections below.

2.1 Castle Rock Software Installation

2.1.1 Required Equipment The following hardware and software components must be installed before SNMPc. These components are not included with SNMPc and must be purchased separately.

1. Pentium III or compatible with 256MB memory (for WIN 98). 2. Pentium III or compatible with 512MB memory (for NT or 2000). 3. Hard disk drive with at least 2 G free space. 4. 3.5" high density diskette drive. 5. VGA color adapter, CD ROM drive and monitor. 6. Mouse. 7. Network card. Please refer to protocol software documentation for a list of supported Network cards. 8. Windows Sockets compliant TCP/IP stack. 9. SNMP Agent software for each node.

2.1.2 Software Copy Protection Castle Rock SNMPc uses a serial number to protect against unauthorized duplication. SNMPc checks the validity of the serial number each time it is started, and it also communicates with other copies of SNMPc running on your network. If a duplicate serial number is detected, both copies of SNMPc will display a message and stop network access. The serial number is printed on the License Agreement card. You must not lose this card as it is your proof of purchase. You will be asked to enter the serial number when SNMPc is installed. Note that the TCP/IP stack you use may also have a separate serial number and key which is used when installing the TCP/IP stack.

2.1.3 Installing TCP/IP Software Castle Rock SNMPc requires a Windows Sockets compliant TCP/IP stack. Windows 95, 98, NT and 2000 all include a free TCP/IP stack. The TCP/IP protocol software must be installed and functional before SNMPc can be used. You must assign an internet (IP) address for the PC, and for each node that will be managed by SNMPc. Refer to the protocol software documentation for instructions on how to set the IP addresses. Once you have completed this step, you should be able to use the protocol Ping command for the PC host name. You should also test the network interface configuration by Pinging another TCP/IP device that is connected to the network.

2.1.4 Installing Castle Rock SNMPc Software

Insert the Castle Rock SNMPc CDROM into the CDROM drive. Use the Windows Start/Run menu and enter d:\setup (or e:\setup, etc., depending on which letter denotes the CDROM drive on your computer). The software will automatically be installed on drive C of your computer unless you enter a command to save it elsewhere. The install program will show a dialog with three buttons for the installable SNMPc options. On your main SNMPc system, you only need to install the Server component, as this includes a local console and polling agent.


5

Press the Server button. You will be prompted for the installation directory next, and then the Discovery Seed dialog will be displayed. You must enter valid information at this dialog or network discovery will not work properly. Enter the IP Address of an SNMP Seed Device on your network, preferably a router. Enter the Subnet mask for the Seed Device. Enter the SNMP Get Community for the seed device. The install program will proceed to install SNMPc on your hard drive. After the installation is complete, logoff Windows and restart your computer.

After you reboot the system and logon to Windows, SNMPc will be started automatically.

2.2 LoopView Software Installation

LoopView software is designed to support Castle Rock SNMPc software. If the Castle Rock SNMPc software is not already loaded on your management PC, load it before you install the LoopView software. (For Castle Rock installation instructions refer to ‘Castle Rock Software Installation’ in Section 2.1 of this manual.)

Note: LoopView 3.08 and later versions support the automatic installation procedure detailed below. If you are using an older version of Loopview (eg. LoopView 3.04-3.06) please refer to an earlier version (V1.1) LoopView User Manual.for installation instructions.

4.1 Login Security LoopView Manager includes three-level / multi-user logins.

Table 4- 1 Login security

Level Restrictions SUPERVISOR Full access Operator Open the default map which has been specified by Supervisor, but

no edit. No software configuration. Device sets is available. Observer Observe the default map which has been specified by Supervisor

and the device nodes in the map only. No open/close/edit map. No software configuration. No program exit.

When you start SNMPc from the Program Manager, you will be prompted for a user name and password. The initial user and password is “admin” and an empty string. Supervisor-level users can create new users and change passwords using Config/Edit Users command. Operator-level users can only change its own password. Observer-level users cannot change anything.

4.2 Compile MIB Files MIB files are distributed with each piece of equipment which can be supported by SNMPc/LoopView. In order to use the MIB file, and manage the device, the MIB must be added and compiled to work within the software. Start SNMPc from the program manager. It will prompt for a user name and password. The initial user is “admin”, and the initial password is an empty string. You can create new users and their passwords by using the Config/Edit Users Command. From main menu, select Config/MIB database. Click “Add” button, select mib file, "loope.mib", from the list, then click “OK”.

4.3 Network Map The operation of SNMPc centers around a map of the network. User create the map using SNMPc menu commands. The map file contains all the information required by LoopView to draw the network map and to poll each nodes in the network. figure 3-1 is an example of LoopView of a network map. Double click left mouse on Hierarchic icon to display its subnet map. Multiple simultaneous view of network levels is illustrated in Figure 4-2.

4.4 Object Layout Network elements are termed “nodes” and are represented on the screen by an icon. There are four types of nodes:Hierarchy Node 1. Goto Node 2. Agent Node 3. Ping Node Hierarchy nodes represent an underlying structure of networks such as a city and a building. Hierarchy nodes can be entered to reveal additional map segments. Goto nodes are indirect links to Hierarchy nodes. It can be used as shortcuts around the map. Agent nodes represent manageable network devices that have SNMP agents in them. Each agent has a unique Node Name, which is displayed on the map, and a Network Address which must be a valid IP address. Ping nodes represent network devices that support IP but do not have an SNMP agent. Networks can be created automatically. Each node is connected to one or more networks. The selected node is the target node for the commands. MIB variables can be inspected by first select the node and use the Edit MIB Variables menu option. To create a network automatically, use the pull-down menu "Discover Nodes" under "Edit". It may take some time for LoopView to poll all available Loop devices attached to the network. This command can be repeated in case some nodes may be missing due to missed polls.

4.5 The Frame Menu The frame menu contains the names of command group. Each menu can be pulled down with the mouse

to display the individual options of each group. The following table presents the available menu groups, and a brief description of each.

browser, MIB browser, RMON View. Config Global configuration attributes Window Arrange sub windows Help Display help information

4.6 Monitoring Nodes LoopView Manager automatically polls every node in the network at specified intervals, and displays device and network status using different colors: 1. Icon in normal status displays with green background. 2. Icon with alarms in its current log displays with magenta background. 3. Agent icon which failed to poll displays with red background. Also its hierarchical nodes displays with red

background. 4. Agent icon which is disabled to poll displays with gray background. The hierarchical icon with all agent

icons disabled. You can also force LoopView manager to immediately send a poll to a node. This is useful for testing the status of a node without having to wait for the poll interval to expire.

Chapter 4 Operation

4.7 The Event Log When LoopView manager detects an error, a message is written to a log file. The bell button on the frame window button bar also be painted red or magenta. Other types of massages are also written to the log file. The following table shows the possible event types.

Table 4- 2 Event types

Event Type Description Info An information event, such as “log file opened”. Positive information about nodes, such as

“node responding to SNMP” Err An error or negative information about nodes, such as “Node not responding”. Mib A MIB compiler error Trig A threshold exceeded event for a polled variable set up with the Edit/Node History

command. Trap An SNMP trap received from the node. The message will contain the node sysObjectID

value, the Trap MIB names and values. Each log entry is assigned a numeric priority from 1 to 6, where 1 is the highest priority, and 6 is the lowest. Each priority is assigned a color, as follows:

1 Red 2 Yellow 3 Magenta 4 Blue 5 Green 6 Clear

LoopView manager maintains two event log files. The Current log file is cleared each time you start LoopView. The current log file determines what color a node is displayed on the map. Each node will be displayed the color of the highest priority entry in the current log file. Each entry in the current log file is also written to the History log file, which is not cleared when LoopView starts. The capacity of History log file is 100 K byte. The following is an example of a log view window.
