Introduction
Software
 
1 - 3
 
The MSS also implements basic Simple Network Management 
Protocol (SNMP) functionality. SNMP commands enable users, 
usually system administrators, to get information from and control 
other nodes on a local area network (LAN), and respond to queries 
from other network hosts. The MSS allows conÞguration of one 
community name with read/write access.
¥
IPX/ SPX (NetWare)
The MSS provides IPX/SPX access to the serial device from 
NetWare and any other IPX/SPX nodes. It allows users to 
download system Þles from NetWare hosts and log into the MSS 
via NetWare for remote conÞguration.
The MSS supports all four NetWare frame types: Ethernet v2, 
Native mode, 802.2, and 802.2 SNAP.

Local Area Transport (LAT)
LAT is a protocol developed by Digital Equipment Corporation 
(DEC) for local network connections and is supported on most 
DEC operating systems. The MSS provides logins to remote hosts 
and host-initiated connections, as well as access to the MSS serial 
port from LAT hosts.
 
1.3 Software
 
The CD-ROM shipped with the MSS contains operational software. It also 
contains EZWebCon software which can be used to conÞgure the unit. 
The MSS is equipped with Flash ROM, so it is not necessary to download 
software each time the unit boots. Software must only be reloaded if there is a 
problem with the Flash ROM, or if a new software version is released. 
 
1.4 Configuration
 
Each MSS has a unique name and network address printed on its underside. 
The name is based on the MSS Ethernet address and is referred to in the 
manual as 
 
MSS_xxxxxx
 
. The xxxxxx string represents the last six digits of the 
MSS Ethernet address. Be sure to note the Ethernet address before 
conÞguring the unit.
