1999/1/5 PMWizard 1.0b1 Open Beta Release Note PMWizard is a configuration wizard for a PortMaster(R) 3 running ComOS(R) 3.8 or later. PMWizard is based on Sun's Java Virtual Machine 1.1.4. Version 1.0b1 of the PMWizard is available as an open beta release to any Lucent customer at no charge. PMWizard was designed to do the following: * Be portable across operating systems * Provide a step-by-step process to configure a new PortMaster 3 * Set the unit's IP address through an integrated BOOTP server * Save the unit's configuration Contents Limitations System Requirements Installing PMWizard Removing PMWizard Running PMWizard Your Comments Contacting Technical Support Limitations The following is a list of the known limitations of PMWizard 1.0b1: * The ChoiceNet and RADIUS secrets are not saved in the backup file. * PMWizard sometimes crashes if the Connecting dialog window is moved around. * The system name is not read by PMWizard unless SNMP is turned on. * Although hypertext links in the help system work under Sun's JRE 1.1.4, they do not work under JRE 1.1.5. This bug is fixed in Sun's JRE 1.1.6. System Requirements PMWizard is a Java-based product that can run on any system with JDK or JRE (Java Runtime Environment) 1.1.4 or later installed. Nondevelopers can use the JRE rather than the JDK. Currently, JDK 1.1 and JRE 1.1 are available for the following platforms: Windows NT 4.0 http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1/ Windows 95 http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1/ Solaris 2.5.1 http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1/ Solaris x86 2.5.1 http://www.javasoft.com/products/jdk/1.1/ Linux 2.x ftp://lagrange.la.asu.edu/pub/Linux_jdk/ FreeBSD http://www.freebsd.org/java/ SGI IRIX 6.3 http://www.sgi.com/developers/devtools/ HP-UX 10.02 http://www.hp.com/esy/go/java.html Alpha Digital UNIX 4.0 http://www.digital.com/java/download/ IBM AIX 4.1 http://www.ibm.com/java/tools/jdk.html Macintosh http://developer.apple.com/java/ Other Platforms http://java.sun.com/cgi-bin/java-ports.cgi The minimum Java Virtual Machine required for the Macintosh platform is MRJ 2.1ea3. Installing PMWizard 1. Download the following file from the Lucent Remote Access FTP site as follows: ftp ftp.livingston.com (Enter "anonymous".) (Enter your email address. It will not echo.) binary cd pub/le/software/java * For Solaris (other than x86), enter get pmwizard10b1_solaris.tar * For other UNIX systems, enter get pmwizard10b1_unix.tar * For Windows, enter get pmwizard10b1.zip * For Macintosh, enter get pmwizard10b1.sit quit 2. For UNIX systems, make sure the paths to the JVM are set properly. NOTE: The Solaris and Windows installations install a JVM. In the .cshrc file, define the path for the jre/bin. For example, if you install the JRE in the /usr/local/lib directory, the .cshrc file must have the following entry: set path=( /usr/local/lib/jre1.1.4/bin $path ) If the JDK is installed, change the pmwizard script to use the java command instead of jre. 3. Run the installation. * For Solaris, on the command line, enter the following commands: tar xvf pmwizard10b1_solaris.tar ./pmwizard_install.bin * For other UNIX systems, on the command line, enter the following commands (you can use any directory you prefer instead of /usr/local/lucent): mkdir /usr/local/lucent mkdir /usr/local/lucent/pmwizard cp pmwizard10b1_unix.tar /usr/local/lucent/pmwizard cd /usr/local/lucent/pmwizard tar xvf pmwizard10b1_unix.tar rm pmwizard10b1_unix.tar * For Windows, unzip the pmwizard10b1.zip file and run the pmwizard_install.exe program. * For Macintosh, unstuff the pmwizard10b1.sit file and place the Lucent/PMWizard folder into your Applications folder. Removing PMWizard On a Solaris or Windows system, an application called Uninstall_PMWizard is placed in the Lucent/PMWizard directory. Run this application to remove PMWizard from your system. On other UNIX systems, remove the shell script and jar files to remove PMWizard from your system. On a Macintosh system, remove the Lucent/PMWizard folder. Running PMWizard On a Windows system, select the PMWizard icon from the Lucent folder in your Start, Programs Menu. On UNIX systems, run PMWizard by typing "pmwizard" from the PMWizard installation directory. If you add the PMWizard installation directory to your PATH, then you can run pmwizard from anywhere. On a Macintosh system, select the PMWizard icon from the Lucent/PMWizard folder.
