Remote Connections
Prior to accessing the switch’s onboard agent via a network connection,
you must first configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway using a console connection, DHCP or BOOTP protocol.
The IP address for this switch is unassigned by default. To manually
configure this address or enable dynamic address assignment via DHCP or
BOOTP, see “Setting an IP Address” on page 2-7.
Notes: 1.
This switch supports four concurrent Telnet/SSH sessions.
2.
Each VLAN group can be assigned its own IP interface address
(page 2-7). You can manage the switch via any of these
addresses.
After configuring the switch’s IP parameters, you can access the onboard
configuration program from anywhere within the attached network. The
onboard configuration program can be accessed using Telnet from any
computer attached to the network. The switch can also be managed by any
computer using a web browser (Internet Explorer 5.0 or above, or
Netscape Navigator 6.2 or above), or from a network computer using
SNMP network management software.
Note:
The onboard program only provides access to basic configuration
functions. To access the full range of SNMP management
functions, you must use SNMP-based network management
software.
