Connectivity
1-6 Introduction
Connectivity
The switch connects to Ethernet networks or workstations through the fixed front panel
RJ45 connectors and four uplink ports that support optional Mini ‐ GBICs.
At the time of this printing, the six Mini ‐ GBICs available from Enterasys are described in
Table 1 ‐ 2 on page 1 ‐ 6. These Mini ‐ GBICs meet or exceed the IEEE 802.3z ‐ 1998 standard.
Management
Management of the module can be either in ‐ band or out ‐ of ‐ band. In ‐ band remote
management is possible using Telnet, Enterasys Networks’ NetSight
®
management
application, or the WebView application. Out ‐ of ‐ band management is provided through
the RJ45 COM (Communication) port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a
VT100 terminal emulator.
Switch Configuration Using WebView
Enterasys Networks’ HTTP ‐ based Web management application (WebView) is an
intuitive web tool for simple management tasks.
