6.1 Introduction

The ELS has a configuration and diagnostic interface.

The device can be configured and its current status displayed using a graphic
interface. All configuration or status data is available as MIB objects and can be
modified and displayed within the graphic user interface.

The ELS has the following configuration functions:

● Configuration of the IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway using the

Primary Setup Tool (PST).

● Reset of all values to the factory settings using the PST.

● Configuration of E-mail and trap recipients.

● Configuration of individual events that will trigger the sending of E-mails and/or

traps.

The ELS has the following diagnostic functions:

● Display of the current status of the ports (link up/down, transmission rate, and

duplicity).

● Display of the MAC address, the IP address, the subnet mask, the gateway,

and the type of configuration (manual or using DHCP).

● Trap and E-mail monitoring unit: Cold start events and status changes at the

port can be sent to E-mail and/or trap recipients.

● Display of statistical values of errors that have occurred on the network and that

were detected by the ELS (CRC, defective frames, collisions etc.).

● Display of the system up time and the hardware and firmware version.
