PS anyone know what happened to phonemeister? He used to do our phones but have not been able to contact him in a couple if years. Just wondeing.
I ran into him a couple of years ago at a customer location. We was working with a CLEC. He probably moved on, like a lot of people. I just don't have anything better to do.
The reset button has nothing to do with the processor. It is for the power supply. On the processor there is jumper that will reset the processor. It will either reset it to factory or reload the last backup which was performed by a tech. Either way, I don't recommend.
It's really hard to say why you can't connect. There are so many possible issues, it's hard to list them all.
Summary: Wrong IP address, can't PING from the laptop, wrong community name , processor NIC problem, processor locked up (usually a power cycle will fix it), and as the link mentioned, SNMP component not installed. Also the annoying fact that you can only use Internet explorer with eManager. I haven't even attempted to install it on Windows 11, which is why use a VM with Windows 7 on my laptop.
