¾ Before conducting a complete installation of NNM system, please make sure that no other
network management system exists on the target host. If there is any other network
management system on the host, please uninstall it first. If the existing network management
is NView NNM V4.2 system, please choose to upgrade it to V5.0 during the installation. For
details, please refer to Chapter 3.
¾ Please make sure that the “SNMP Trap Receiving Service” of Windows OS system services
on the target host has been stopped.
0 Warning: The presence of other SNMP network management systems on the target host
where NNM Server will reside is strictly forbidden in system deployment process. This may
lead to system failure due to reasons such as resource occupation. A most typical instance is the
failure of receiving trap information correctly caused by port 162 occupation.
¾ Standalone deployment scheme: The standalone deployment scheme installs client, server,
and database on one PC. This scheme is suitable for concentrated management and
maintenance based on management center.
¾ Distributed deployment scheme: The distributed deployment scheme installs the complete
system on a host adopting the typical deployment scheme, installs client on other hosts, and
connects all clients on to one host. This scheme meets the requirement of remote, multi-client
management.
The two deployment schemes can be realized by different options in the installation process. Users
can choose either of the two according to need.
L Note: If the system is deployed distributedly, to upgrade the system (including installing
service packs, EMS and application components), users have to install the upgrade program on
the host where the server resides and install corresponding upgrade program on the hosts
where the clients resides.

requirement of the EMS to be installed. Otherwise, please upgrade the current NNM system.
¾ If the current NNM system is operating, please quit the system (both the client and the server)
first, and make sure that the database service is running.
¾ If any personal network security software (e.g. Norton Internet Security) exists on the target
host, please stop it before the installation of the EMS and restart it when the installation
completes.
After copying the installation files, the welcome interface will turn up (see Figure 5-3).

Chapter 7 FAQ
¾ Find “SNMP Trap Service” and double-click it, the property dialog box for SNMP Trap
Service will turn up.
30
www.raisecom.com User Manual
7.2 Alarms from network element devices can not reach the system.
To ensure that an alarm can be received and displayed by the system correctly, the following
conditions must be satisfied.
¾ Please make sure that all network devices under management and the management
workstation where the NNM system resides must be correctly connected to the network. And
the links between them are unblocked (devices can Ping each other and communication via
UDP protocol is allowed).
¾ The Port 162 of the host where the NNM system server resides must not be occupied by other
processes. For example, for Win2000 Server OS system, the SNMP Trap Service witch
occupies Port 162 is enabled by default. Before installing NNM system on this OS system,
the SNMP Trap Service must be stopped to release Port 162, otherwise, the NNM system will
not be able to receive alarm information. Please note that only the host where the server of
NNM system resides must satisfy this condition. For clients installed following distributed
installation scheme, they do not have to satisfy this condition.
¾ Communication via UDP protocol must be allowed on the network. In some specified
application environment, out of security consideration, all network devices are behind a
firewall. In this circumstance, please make sure that Trap is able to pass through the firewall
to reach the management work station. Otherwise, the system will not be able to receive
alarm information.
¾ The agent of the network devices must set the target of the trap to be the IP address of the
host on which the server of the NNM system resides.
¾ The NNM system should have the definition of the alarm type. Otherwise, even if the
information of the alarm is received, the system will regard it as an unknown alarm.
¾ Check whether the NNM system has set up any filter rules concerning the alarm type. If the
alarm is filtered by the system, the system will not display the alarm and even not handle it at
all.
¾ The host from which the alarm comes from should on the device list of the system. Otherwise,
the alarm information will be dropped by the system as alarm information from unknown
source.
¾ The host from which the alarm comes from should be a node in the management domain of
the current user. Otherwise, the alarm information will not be displayed (This will not affect
the receiving of the alarm information. But the information will not be displayed on the client
the administrator logged on.). There is no this restriction for users for “admin” user group.
31
www.raisecom.com User Manual
¾ The version of the EMS should match that of the device Agent program. For example, if the
version of Agent program is higher than that of the EMS, the information of some types of
alarms can not be received.
If all the conditions listed above are satisfied, the NNM system should be able to receive and resolve
alarm information correctly. Please note that the above conditions are the minimal set of conditions
that must be satisfied to have alarm information received correctly. In some specified application
environment, some other conditions may have to be satisfied.
7.3 Clients can not connect to the server after an installation following the
distributed scheme.
¾ Please check whether the server is started and operating in order.
¾ Please check whether the IP address of the host where the server resides is correctly inputted
when installing remote clients. During the startup process of the client, if the specified IP
address of the server can not be connected, the system will inform the user to enter the IP
address of the host where the server resides again.
¾ Please make sure whether the “User Access Control” function is enabled. If it is enabled,
please register the IP address of host where the remote client resides on the local clients,
otherwise, the remote client is not allowed to log on.
7.4 When starting the server, a dialog box that informs the failure of connecting
the database pops up.
The dialog box is shown below:
¾ Please confirm whether the database service is started. Please check whether the
“raisecom_database_engine” service is started via service management tools on the control
pane of Windows. If the service is not started, please start it manually.
¾ Existing firewall may block the access of the database. Please shut down the firewall or
configure the property of the firewall to have the database accessible.
¾ If the system uses MySQL database, please check whether MySQL has been attacked by
Worm virus. If MySQL has been attacked by the virus, please clear it using anti-virus
software.
7.5 When starting the EMS, the system informs communication timeout or SNMP
operation failure.
¾ Please check whether the main network management module of the device is operating in
order, whether the system signal indicator and Ethernet interface indicator are in normal
status, whether the network management card is correctly placed (For RC002 and RC004
chassis, the device should be plugged in the first slot of the chassis).
¾ Ping the IP address of the device node and check whether the node is route reachable.
¾ Check whether the version of the EMS matches that of the main network management
module of the device.
¾ Check whether the device type of the device node in the topology is consistent with the
