Introduction
MultiVOIPManager is an SNMP manager that centralizes con-

dows 3.1 and above or Windows NT 4.0 and above and has an

computers CD-ROM drive. If AutoRun is enabled, the
MultiVOIP installation screen appears. If AutoRun is not
enabled, use Windows Explorer to find AutoRun.exe in the
root directory of the CD, and then double-click it.
2. On the MultiVOIP installation screen, click MultiVOIP

Initial Configuration of MultiVOIPManager
In MultiVOIPManager, your MultiVOIPs and VOIP channels
are displayed and selected in a window called the Explorer.
Initially, the Explorer is empty except for the VOIP View icon.
Before you can use MultiVOIPManager, you must first add the
MultiVOIPs you want to control or monitor.
To add a MultiVOIP to the Explorer
1. Select the VOIP View icon by clicking it.
2. Click the Add button. The Add IP Site dialog box appears:

3. Type the requested information into the Add IP Site dialog
box:
IP Address: The IP address of the MultiVOIP.
Long Name: The name you want to appear in the Explorer
and in titles of windows that display site information.
Short Name: A three-character name that identifies the
MultiVOIP site in the VOIP-Channel column of the Fault
and Status Events window.
Events Directory: The path where event logs for the IP site
are stored. This path is created automatically when the IP
site is created, and appears only in the Edit version of the
IP Site dialog box.
Community settings: These settings must match the Set
Community and Get Community names of the MultiVOIP
you are adding. The default is public.
4. Click OK. If the MultiVOIP does not immediately appear
in the Explorer, double-click the VOIP View icon. Multi-
VOIPManager automatically searches for the MultiVOIP. If
it finds it, the MultiVOIP icon is colored to show that it has
connected. If it cannot find it, the icon is grayed out.
