DYNAMICACCESS 5 DynamicAccess software adds intelligence to 3Com PC Cards for improved performance, management, and control of your network. DynamicAccess software 1.5 is an advanced network driver that integrates dRMON, Fast IP, Traffic Prioritization, and Efficient Multicast Control support. ¦ Traffic Prioritization provides a standards-based solution, preventing delays in transmissions of mission-critical or real-time traffic and extends this capability to the WAN. ¦ Fast IP alleviates router bottlenecks in today's any-to-any networks and intranets, where a growing percentage of traffic travels between rather than within subnets. ¦ Efficient Multicast Control prevents flooding of switched networks by multicast applications such as video training, stock quotes, or online news. For complete information on how to use DynamicAccess software, see the DynamicAccess software documentation on the DynamicAccess Disk. Be sure to visit the 3Com Web site for additional postings of FAQs for the Edge Monitor System and new DynamicAccess software versions and information at: DynamicAccess software offers easy centralized installation through login scripts or other popular software distribution platforms. These installation methods eliminate the need to touch each end node PC to install the client software to get the advantages of dRMON and the Edge Monitor. CHAPTER 5: DYNAMICACCESS Using DynamicAccess Software Version 1.5 with the Edge Monitor System The Edge Monitor System operates as described in the Transcend dRMON Edge Monitor System User Guide. Follow the instructions in the Release Notes and the user guide. The new software for the end nodes should be installed according to the instructions included in the file on the disk. The following issues, in addition to the installation instructions, must be observed for a successful installation: ¦ If you have already installed the DynamicAccess software version 1.5 on your end nodes and now plan to install the Transcend dRMON Edge Monitor System, do not install the dRMON SmartAgent software from the CD on to your end nodes. You only need to ensure that the password you set for the end nodes with KEYSET.EXE matches the password you use for your Edge Monitor. ¦ Do not install the DynamicAccess software version 1.5 on the PC where you install the Edge Monitor. The data reported by the Edge Monitor will be inaccurate because it will track its own traffic statistics twice. ¦ If you install DynamicAccess software on a PC running Windows NT Server, the dRMON software that collects statistics is inactive. To activate the dRMON collection, change the value of the following registry REG_DWORD from 0 to 1 with Regedit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\ CurrentControlSet\Services\ DAPassThru\Parameters\ This is the same behavior as the dRMON SmartAgent software behavior, but the registry key is different. ¦ You cannot use the Auto-Update utility with the new client DynamicAccess software. A replacement utility will be available at the next release of the Edge Monitor. ¦ Do not install the dRMON SmartAgent software that ships on the CD on a PC that has the DynamicAccess software installed. Setting a dRMON Password To promote secure monitoring with dRMON, you can set a password for the dRMON DynamicAccess software. If you do not choose to set a password, the end node PCs will have the default password for the Edge Monitor. Use this same password for the DynamicAccess software. To set the password for secure monitoring: 1 Run the KEYGEN.EXE file. The KEYGEN.EXE file encodes the password into the KEYSET.EXE file. 2 Enter your password in the dialog box. 3 Record your dRMON ...
