Chapter 3
Agent Configuration
In order to ensure that your network or Cajun M770 ATM Device works properly,
your network agent must be configured correctly. This chapter helps you manage
your agent. The following sections are included:
• Overview of Master Agent and Sub Agents
• Overview of Agent Configuration
• Viewing Agent Configuration Information
• Designating Managers
Master Agent and Sub Agents
The Cajun M770 ATM Device is a fully distributed switch. Each module has its own
switching and CPU power supply. In order to present the device as a single and
united entity, one module is automatically elected as a Master Agent while the
other modules are Sub Agents. The NMA (Network Management Agent) LED is lit
on the module which has been elected to be the Master Agent.
The Master Agent is the one hosting the Management LEC with all of its
functionality: IP Address and switch-wide information.
All the information configured on the Master Agent is backed up by the Sub
Agents. If the Master Agent is removed or reset, another module will be elected,
and all previous configuration settings will be kept.
Overview of Agent Configuration
The Master Agent is responsible for managing the modules contained in the
devices. The Master Agent enables handling many of the Cajun M770 ATM
Manager features, such as statistical reporting, configuration information and trap
reporting.
If your agent is not properly configured for your network or can not communicate
with CajunView, your network will not achieve its maximum functionality.
Therefore, it is essential that your agent is configured correctly.
Downloading New Agent Software
Downloading agent software is done using the Cajun UpdateMaster. For
instructions, refer to the on-line help for the Cajun UpdateMaster, or the
UpdateMaster User’s Guide

.
Designating Managers
Agents send alarms to Manager workstations that are included in the agent's
Manager list. Alarms are not sent to any other network management stations
(NMS).
If you wish to properly manage an ATM device, your station should be one of its
designated Managers. The Manager can be a Cajun M770 ATM Manager station or
any other SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) management console.
Note:
