NetWare v3.11 SNMP Agent Upgrade Version 2.1 ============================================================================ Installation Instructions ============================================================================ The SNMP Agent for NetWare (NetWare SNMP) NetWare Loadable Module (NLM) file, SNMP.NLM, performs NetWare SNMP services. The NetWare SNMP Upgrade Diskette allows you to upgrade NetWare SNMP on NetWare v3.11 servers. For NetWare v3.11, NetWare SNMP also depends on another NLM, the AFTER311 NLM. Furthermore, you must load the TCP/IP NLM if the SNMP management stations you run use IP as their transport mechanism. This file explains how to install these NLM files on a NetWare v3.11 server. !!WARNING!! When you install NetWare SNMP, always use the NetWare SNMP installation program from the NetWare SNMP Upgrade diskette. The installation program on the Upgrade diskette contains version checking to prevent existing versions of NetWare SNMP from being incorrectly overwritten. This version checking is extremely important. For example, NetWare MultiProtocol Router software v2.0 or later, WAN Links software v2.0 or later, and NetWare v4.0 already contain coordinated versions of the NetWare SNMP NLM and related NLM files. Installing the NetWare SNMP Upgrade without using the version checking can overwrite existing NLM files and disable services, such as routing, that depend on these files. Since the NetWare SNMP NLM depends on other NLM files you *must* use the installation program. Do NOT simply copy the NetWare SNMP NLM to the server. You can install NetWare SNMP either at the server where it will run (local installation) or from a workstation attached to the server (remote installation). This file describes both methods. ============================================ Installing the NetWare SNMP software locally ============================================ To install the NetWare SNMP Upgrade at the server, complete the following steps: 1. From the server console, type the following command: LOAD INSTALL 2. At the Install NLM screen, select Product Options. 3. Press to add a new product. 4. At the prompt, insert the Upgrade diskette in the disk drive. If the diskette is not in drive A:, change the drive letter to the correct letter. Then, press to start the installation. 5. When installation is complete, Press to get to the Main menu. 6. Select System Options. 7. Select Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF File. 8. Add the following line to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file: LOAD SNMP Include command-line options as needed; see either the "NetWare v3.11 TCP/IP Transport Supervisor's Guide" or the "SNMP Agent for NetWare Developer's Guide" for information about these options. 9. Press to exit. 10. Answer "Y" to save the edits to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. 11. Press to exit to the Main Installation menu. 12. Press to exit the Install NLM. 13. Bring down the server by typing the following commands: DOWN EXIT 14. Restart the server by typing the following command: SERVER The NetWare SNMP NLM and associated NLM files are now installed on the server. ============================================= Installing the NetWare SNMP software remotely ============================================= To install the NetWare SNMP Upgrade from a workstation, log into the server where you are installing NetWare SNMP and complete the following steps: 1. Create the directory SYS:SNMP_1 on the server by entering the following commands at your workstation: MAP Q:=SYS: Q: MD SNMP_1 CD SNMP_1 2. Insert the Upgrade diskette into your disk drive and copy the files and subdirectories from the Upgrade diskette into the SYS:SNMP_1 directory, as follows, where driveLetter is the letter of the disk drive the diskette is in: XCOPY /S /A driveLetter:*.* Q:\SNMP_1 3. Run RCONSOLE. 4. Load the Install NLM by typing the following command: LOAD INSTALL 5. At the Install NLM screen, select Product Options. 6. Press to add a new product. 7. At the prompt, type SYS:SNMP_1 and press . 8. When installation is complete, Press to get to the Main menu. 9. Select System Options. 10. Select Edit AUTOEXEC.NCF File. 11. Add the following line to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file: LOAD SNMP Include command-line options as needed; see either the "NetWare v3.11 TCP/IP Transport Supervisor's Guide" or the "SNMP Agent for NetWare Developer's Guide" for information about these options. 12. Press to exit. 13. Answer "Y" to save the edits to the AUTOEXEC.NCF file. 14. Press to exit to the Main Installation menu. 15. Press to exit the Install NLM. 16. Bring down the server by typing the following commands: DOWN EXIT 17. Restart the server by typing the following command: SERVER The NetWare SNMP NLM and associated NLM files are now installed on the server.
