Starting a Configuration in Dynamic Mode
To perform dynamic configuration, complete the following steps:
1. Specify the router you want to configure.
Refer to “Specifying the Router in Dynamic and Remote Modes” later in this
chapter.
2. Select Tools➔Configuration Manager➔Dynamic in the Bay Networks
Site Manager window.
If you used the Technician Interface to set the router to secure mode during
the Quick-Start procedure, you will now be prompted for a password. Enter
the encryption key that you used when you set this router to secure mode.
The Configuration Manager window appears, displaying the real-time router
hardware and software configuration.
You can now use the Configuration Manager to perform all desired router
configuration functions (adding interfaces, and so forth). Proceed to Chapter 2 for
more information.
Specifying the Router in Dynamic and Remote Modes
To run the Configuration Manager in dynamic or remote mode, you must first
specify the router you want to configure. You can specify the router in the
following ways:
• If you have connected to this router before, use the well-known connections
feature described in the next section.
• Display the Router Connection Options window (Figure 1-9) in either of the
following ways:
Note: If you upgrade your router software (for example, from Version 8.10 or
9.xx to 10.0), and then view the configuration file in dynamic mode, the file’s
MIB stamp will not match the revision of the upgraded software. Once you
dynamically edit and save the configuration file (either using Site Manager or
the Technician Interface), the router software updates the file's MIB stamp to
match the newer software.
