Connecting the Ethernet Cables
To gain access to the internal network SNMP agent in the switch element, and for remote
Telnet access, connect to an existing Ethernet 10/100Base-T Local Area Network (LAN)
through the front panel RJ-45 connector of the switch element (see Figure 3–2). This
connection works for Web, SNMP, and Telnet access and can be used for remote
monitoring, testing, and management.
Figure 3–2: Connecting the Ethernet cables
1. Connect all six switch elements by Ethernet cable to the LAN.
2. Access each switch element through the network connection. You can manage the
individual switch elements using Web Management Tools or Telnet commands.
For detailed information on Telnet commands and managing your switch elements, refer
to the Compaq StorageWorks Fibre Channel SAN Switch Management Guide.
