Introduction
AnnexManagerallowssystem administratorsto monitorand configurethe
Annexes in the network.It is a host-based, window oriented, configuration
and management application designed to manage Bay Networks’ Annex
remote access communication servers.
Annex Manager offers the functionality of the older Annex host-based na
configuration tool in an easier to use format. In addition, it provides basic
monitoring capabilities that were previously available only by connecting
directly to the Annex.
Annex Manager Features
Annex Manager offers advanced features through a graphical user
interface.It allows you to:
❑ Configure Annexes with Setup or Customize mode:
❑Setup mode allows users to configure one or more
Annexes by setting the most commonly used parameters.
❑Customize mode lets users set individual Annex
parameters and provides access to all main menu
commands.
❑ Simplifyconfigurationoperationsusingpre-definedparameter
groups.
❑ Create additional parameter groups for easy configuration.
Notes provide important information.
Warnings inform you about conditions that can
have adverse effects on processing.
Cautions notify you about dangerous conditions.

Introduction
CSMIM/Micro-CS Management Application Guide 7
Annex Manager Environment
AnnexManageris anSNMP-basedmanagementapplicationthatusesthe
X/Motif™ graphical environment for its user interface and the standard
SNMP protocol to send commands to the Annex. Since it is designed to
run stand-alone, Annex Manager includes statically-linked SNMP protocol
routines and the X/Motif™ binary libraries.The installation process copies
theappropriatebinaryexecutableandalltheassociatedhelpanddatafiles
from the distribution media to the workstation's disk storage.Although it is
not a requirement, you should consider installing Annex Manager on the
same workstation you use for the Annex software installation.
AnnexManagerdependsontheproprietaryMIBdefinedfortheAnnexand
on the various standard MIBs supported by the Annex. As such, Annex
Manager cannot manage other SNMP-manageable nodes in the network,
and is not intended to be a generic SNMP management tool.
Annex Manager may be loosely coupled with several standard network
management products such as SunNet Manager™,
HP/Openview™, or IBM Netview™ for AIX. However, Annex Manager is
not tightly integrated with these products.
System Requirements
Release2.3ofAnnexManagerisintendedtorun on a workstationrunning
BSDUnix (Sun Sparc,HP,RS/6000,SCO Unix).Thefollowingsections list
the hardware and software requirements for installing and running Annex
Manager.
Memory Requirements
You must have at least 10 MB of free disk space available prior to
installation.We recommend at least 32 MB of RAM, although specific
memory requirements vary depending on the type of workstation and the
other tasks that run concurrently with Annex Manager.
Annex Manager works best with a color monitor directly attached to the
workstation or a color X-window terminal connected to the UNIX host over
the network. Annex Manager also supports a grey-scale
X-window terminal attached to the workstation. Any X-window terminal
used with Annex Manager must have at least 2 MB of RAM.

Preface
