Management
The SANsurfer Router Manager application and CLI run on a management
workstation that enables you to configure, control, and maintain the router.
Support platforms include Windows, Solaris, and Linux.
The router supports the following management interfaces:
SANsurfer Router Manager – Graphical user interface application, which
runs on a management workstation (see the iSR6142 Router Manager
User's Guide).
Command line interface (CLI) – Runs on the router, which you can access
using telnet or the serial port (see the iSR6142 Router CLI User's Guide).
SNMP – Provides router status, traps, and alerts (see Appendix B)
Recovery
It is prudent to have a recovery process in case a router fails. Consider the
following when developing a router recovery process:
Save all firmware image files (updates) in a safe, well-known place, because
you may:
Want to revert to a previous firmware version.
Need the firmware image when replacing a router.
Need the firmware image when adding a router to your site.
Save the router’s configuration (as a new file) after every configuration
change, because you may:
Want to revert to a previous configuration.
Need to configure a replacement router.
Save the router’s mappings (as a new file) after every mapping change,
because you may:
Want to revert to a previous mapping.
Need to map a replacement router.
Want to duplicate the mapping on a second router (for backup).
