1. INTRODUCTION 

 

Thank you for using the 7x10/100TX plus 2x100FX managed converter switch.  The built-in 
management module allows user to configure this managed converter switch and monitor 
the operation status locally or thru network remotely.

Management switch are available options are listed below: 

  Local Console Management 

 Telnet 

Management 

 SNMP 

Management 

 

Local Console Management 

 
Local Console Management is done through the RS-232 DB-9 console port located at the 
front of the converter switch.  Direct RS-232 cable connection between the PC and the 
converter switch is required for this type of management. 
 

Telnet Management 

 
Telnet is done through the network.  Once the converter switch is on the network with proper 
configuration, you can use Telnet to log in and monitor the status remotely. 

 
SNMP Management 

 

SNMP is also done over the network.  Besides standard MIB (Management Information 
Bases), an additional private MIB is also provided for SNMP-based network management 
system to compile & control.
