## Management Options

Managing the Intel® PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Access Point includes viewing network statistics and setting configuration options. Statistics track the network activity of associated clients and data transfers on the access point interfaces.

### Web Browser Support

To set configuration options and view statistics, the access point includes a Web server compatible with Java*. You can use Netscape Navigator* 4.5 or greater, or Microsoft Internet Explorer* 4.0 or greater to browse to the IP address of the access point. If the access point is defined in Domain Name Services (DNS), you can browse to the DNS name of the access point. Using the browser, you can:

- access configuration, performance, and diagnostic information

- change configuration settings

- update the firmware in the access point.

### Custom Management Options

For custom management, the access point supports the following:

- a networked computer with a Telnet client
- terminal or computer with RS-232 connection and ANSI emulation
- Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

The access point includes SNMP agent versions accessible through an SNMP manager application such as Hewlett Packard OpenView* or Aprisma Spectrum* MIB browser. The SNMP agent supports:

- SNMP versions 1 and a subset of version 2

- MIB II

- 802.11 MIB

- one Intel proprietary Intel Management Information Base (MIB)

- read-write, read-only or disabled modes (We do not recommend access the access point using this method)

See to the MIB Browser documentation for usage. The access point supports traps that return to the SNMP manager when certain events occur. The Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Installation Disk packaged with the access point contains the Intel MIB.
