Model 1001MC Operations Guide 7 • Model 2701RC management
Introduction
This chapter describes managing a Model 2701RC NetLink-G.703/G.704 network termination unit (NTU)
using the Model 1001MC NetLink-NMS internal HTTP/HTML web engine and a standard web browser.
This chapter is meant to be used in addition to the manual that came with your unit.
NetLink-NMS description
Specifically designed for use in the Patton NetLink system, when the NetLink-G.703/G.704 NTU is coupled
with the Model 1001MC NetLink-NMS and the Patton Model 1001 rack system, the modem is fully SNMP
manageable. SNMP management can be performed on both the local and remote units using a standard SNMP
network management station (NMS) or by using a standard web browser and the Model 1001MC's built-in web
server. You can view and change configuration variables, view statistical variables, and view error and warning
indications.
Configuration and management
This section describes the configuration and management of your NetLink G.703/G.704 NTUs using a Model
1001MC NetLink-NMS with built in HTTP/HTML web server. If you plan to manage your units using a
standard network management station you can download the Patton Enterprise MIBs either through the
SNMP web page on the Model 1001MC or obtain them from the Patton web site at www.patton.com.
The following pages are used to configure and manage the Model 2701RC:
• Modem Information Rack X page: This page displays a list of the cards that are installed in your system and
a quick view of any errors or warnings associated with your modems (see section “Displaying the Modem

• Model 2701 Configuration Slot X page: This page (along with the Model 2701 Configuration page)
enables you to make configuration changes to the Model 2701RC and the remote CPE box (see section
“Displaying the Model 2701RC Configuration Slot page” on page 135)
• Model 2701 Configuration page: This page (along with the Model 2701 Configuration Slot page) enables
you to update configuration of modems installed in the system (see “Displaying the Model 2701 Configu-
ration page” on page 137)
• Slot Configuration Page: This page can be used to set slot-specific information related to the system and how
the system treats the slot in the case of errors or warnings (see section “Displaying the Model 2701RC Con-
figuration Slot page” on page 135)
