1.6 Configuring the Virtual Network Interface You need to configure the virtual network interface only if the computer you are using for Cooper NMS has multiple physical network adapters. If the computer has a single adapter communicating with network devices you want to monitor, skip this section and go directly to 1.7 Running the Cooper NMS Virtual Machine. NOTE To find out about the computer s configuration, consult your IT administrator. If the computer has more than one network adapter, find out what each adapter is being used for. You need to know which adapter is communicating to the network devices you want to monitor. Binding the Virtual Network to the Appropriate Adapter When VMware Player installs, it creates three virtual network interfaces VMNet0, VMnet1, and VMnet8 (described below). If the VMnet0 network interface (used by Cooper NMS) is configured as Automatic and your computer has more than one physical network adapter, when VMware Player starts it will automatically bind VMnet0 to the first adapter that it finds which may not be the adapter communicating to the network devices you want to monitor. VMNet0 Default virtual interface used by Cooper NMS (this interface does not typically show up in the list of Windows Network interfaces). VMnet1 Host-only interface. VMnet8 NAT interface. In the following procedures, you will use the VMware Player utility called Virtual Network Editor to manually bind (bridge) the VMNet0 virtual interface to the physical adapter on your computer that is associated with the external network you want to monitor. If you want to monitor more than one network, steps are also provided to configure Cooper NMS to use multiple network interfaces. Running the Virtual Network Editor Utility Follow these steps to extract the Virtual Network Editor utility and start it up. 1. Open a command prompt window (Run as Administrator) by clicking the Windows Start button and selecting Run from the menu. 2. When the Run window opens, type cmd in the text box and press Enter. 3. When the command window opens, browse to the directory where the VMware Player installer file was saved (as described in section 1.3 Installing VMware Player ) by typing cd/coopernms. 4. Run the VMware extraction process by typing VMware-player-4.0.4-744019.exe /e c:\vmware. This command extracts the contents of the installer to the c:\vmware folder. 5. Using Windows Explorer, browse to the directory c:\vmware. 6. Open the file network.cab. This is a compressed file that Windows should be able to open. If you have difficulty opening it, try using a file compression software utility, such as WinZip. 7. Extract the contents of the network.cab file to the VMware Player directory C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Player. One way to do this is to select all files in the network.cab file, and then right click and select Extract to the directory C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Player. 8. Run the Virtual Network Editor utility, vmnetcfg.exe. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 11

9. Go on to the next section, Configuring Adapter Settings. Configuring Adapter Settings Next, you will manually bind (bridge) the virtual VMnet0 interface (used by Cooper NMS) to the physical Ethernet adapter used to communicate to the external Ethernet devices you want to monitor. Before beginning, make sure you know what the adapters on the Cooper NMS computer are being used for. Your IT administrator can provide this information. 1. When the Virtual Network Editor utility starts, select the VMnet0 interface in the top selection box. Notice that VMnet0 is currently bridged with an Auto-bridging external connection. In the next step, you will change this so that it binds to the physical Ethernet adapter that is being used to communicate to the external Ethernet devices that you want to monitor. 2. If you know the name of the adapter, change the Bridged to drop down text box selection from Automatic to the name of the network adapter. In the example the adapter is named Realteck RTL8139/810x Fast Ethernet NIC. If you do not know the name of the network adapter, see the section Finding the Network Adapter Name. NOTE Do not change the binding of the VMnet1 and VMnet8 interfaces. These interfaces are used internally by the NMS for Host Only and NAT communications. 12 www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources

3. Click OK to continue. The VMnet0 virtual network interface is now bound to the physical network adapter for the network that you will be monitoring with Cooper NMS. If you want to monitor additional networks, go on to the next section, Adding Additional Networks. Adding Additional Networks If you want Cooper NMS to monitor devices on more than one external Ethernet network, follow these steps to add new virtual networks and then bridge them to physical network adapters in the computer. 1. In the Virtual Network Editor window, click Add Network. Select the next network name and click OK. 2. When the new network name appears in the top window, select the name. From the Bridged to drop-down menu, select the network adapter used by the network you want to monitor. If you do not know the name of the network adapter, see the section Finding the Network Adapter Name. 3. After the new virtual network is added, click OK to continue. 4. Next, confirm that the Virtual Machine s network adapter settings match the network, which in turn is bound to a physical network adapter: a. Select Virtual Machine Settings from the top Virtual Machine menu. b. When the Virtual Machine Settings window opens, select the appropriate network adapter and confirm that the correct network connection is selected. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 13

5. Click OK. 6. To add an additional network, repeat steps 1 through 5. When finished, go on to 1.7 Running the Cooper NMS Virtual Machine. Finding the Network Adapter Name Before you can configure adapter settings, you need to know the name of the physical Ethernet adapter on your computer that is communicating with the network devices you want to monitor. You can use the following procedure to view the list of adapter names. 1. Open the Windows Start menu and select Run from the menu. 2. In the Run window, type ncpa.cpl. 3. Press Enter.

Chapter 2 - COOPER NMS CONFIGURATION The first time you run the Cooper NMS Virtual Machine, the Network Interface Configuration Manager automatically starts. This application allows you to configure initial Cooper NMS configuration settings, such as network settings and local timezone information. To navigate within the Configuration Manager, use the Tab, Arrow, Enter, and ESC keys. NOTE You can also run the Network Interface Configuration Manager at any time by typing cooperconfig into the Linux terminal window. 2.1 Configuring Basic Network Settings 1. Select BASIC NETWORK SETTINGS and press Enter. To select a menu option, use the Arrow keys to highlight the option and use the Tab key to highlight <Select>. 2. Select the Ethernet option of your choice and press Enter. Remember to use the Arrow keys to highlight the menu option, and then use the Tab key to highlight <Select>. NOTE Select Eth0 if only one network adapter is used. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 17

3. Select either dhcp for dynamic IP address assignment or static for manual IP address assignment and press Enter. Select static if you are manually assigning IP addresses to the devices in your network. If IP addresses are assigned automatically by a DHCP server in your network, then select DHCP. If you are unsure, check with your IT administrator for further guidance. If you select DHCP, you should ensure that the NMS virtual machine is always assigned the same IP address by the DHCP server. Each time the IP address of the device changes, the NMS software will need to be re-activated, so it is important to ensure the NMS virtual machine has a fixed IP address. NOTE If you select the DHCP option, you will need to provide the MAC address of the Cooper NMS virtual machine to your IT administrator and request that the DHCP server be configured such that the IP address used for the Cooper NMS virtual machine does not change after it is reset. A procedure is provided at the end of this chapter for retrieving the MAC address ( 2.5 Retrieving the Virtual Machine MAC Address ). The following example shows a static IP selection. 4. Enter a valid IP address. The IP address of Cooper NMS should belong to the same subnet as the wireless network. If a wireless network device has an IP address for instance of 192.168.0.10, the IP address of Cooper NMS should be 192.168.0.x, with x being a unique address that is not in use by any device in the network. The Netmask and Broadcast IP addresses can be changed if required, but they will automatically use the default values if the fields are left empty. The Netmask default is 255.255.255.0, and Broadcast IP default is 192.168.0.255. To delete Netmask and Broadcast entries, move the cursor to the end of the entry and use the Backspace key to delete the address. Gateway is the Default Gateway IP address in the Local Area Network that provides access to the Internet. For more information, select <Help>. 18 www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources

5. After entering the correct addresses, select <Submit> and press Enter. 6. If the addresses are correct in the Apply Confirmation screen, select <Apply> and press Enter. Otherwise, select <Go Back>, press Enter, and enter the correct addresses. 7. Select <OK> and press Enter. The screen indicates that the configuration was successfully applied. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 19

2.2 Configuring the Time Zone 1. Select LOCAL TIMEZONE SETTINGS and press Enter. To select a menu option, use the Arrow keys to highlight the option and use the Tab key to highlight <Select>. 2. Use the Arrow keys to select your local time zone. Confirm that <Submit> is highlighted and press Enter. 3. On the Timezone Configuration screen, select <Apply> and press Enter. 20 www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources

4. Select <OK> and press Enter to apply the configuration and confirm your selection. After confirmation, the Main Menu reappears. 2.3 Agent Configuration If your system includes 455U-D serial modems, a serial-to-ethernet converter (called an Agent ) is required to handle communications with Cooper NMS, which is Ethernet-based. The 455U-D may use a local or external Agent, depending on how the system is configured. Local Agent Cooper NMS includes a preconfigured serial-to-ethernet converter (Ser2Eth) to handle communications with 455U-D modems directly connected to the computer on which Cooper NMS is running. The Ser2Eth Agent is automatically configured for the COM1 port. This is the default configuration. See Figure 1. External Agent For 455U-D modems that are not directly connected to the Cooper NMS computer, an external serial-to-ethernet Agent, such as the 605M-R1 router, is required to be connected to the 455U-D gateway to handle communications with Cooper NMS. See Figure 2. If the 455U-D is using a local Agent, complete the following procedure to configure its port settings. If the 455U-D is using an external Agent, skip this procedure and go on to the next section. Configuring an external Agent is covered in the Quick Start Guide. Figure 1 455U-D Using Default Ser2Eth Agent www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 21

Figure 2 455U-D Using 605M-R1 Agent There are two Agent parameters settings that can be configured when using the local Agent (Ser2Eth): Local Serial Port By default, the default Ser2Eth Agent is configured for the COM1 port. However, you can configure a different COM port to physically connect with the 455U-D. TCP Port You can configure the TCP port address used for serial-to-ethernet conversion. The default value is 2002. 1. From the main menu, select AGENT CONFIGURATION and press Enter. To select a menu option, use the Arrow keys to highlight the option and use the Tab key to highlight <Select>. 22 www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources

2. On the Local Agent for 455 screen, select Local Serial and press Enter. 3. If the 455U-D is connected to the COM1 port on the computer, make sure that /dev/ttys1 is selected and press Enter. If the 455U-D is connected to another port on the computer, use the Tab key to select the appropriate port and press Enter. The following the correspondence between the virtual ttys ports and physical ports on the computer. /dev/ttys0 Printer (by default this serial port is assigned as a printer port and should not be used) /dev/ttys1 COM 1 (Default) /dev/ttys2 COM 2 /dev/ttys3 COM 3 4. Follow these steps to test the port settings: a. Ensure the 455U-D is turned on and a configuration cable is connected from the computer s serial port (as configured above) to the RJ11 connector on the 455U-D. b. On the Local Agent for 455 screen, select <Test> and press Enter. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 23

If the test is successful you will see the following confirmation. If the test fails the Agent Configuration Error widow appears. Verify that the configuration settings and connections are correct and try again. 24 www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources

5. After a successful configuration test, select <OK> and press Enter to return to the Main Menu. 6. Press Tab key to select <Exit> and press Enter to return to the localhost prompt. 2.4 Rebooting the Virtual Machine To apply the previously configured settings, you need to restart the Cooper NMS virtual machine. 1. In the Linux terminal, type reboot and press Enter to restart the virtual machine. www.cooperbussmann.com/wirelessresources 25
