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 obtained via DHCP by default. To
manually configure this address or enable dynamic address assignment via
DHCP or BOOTP, see “Setting an IP Address” on page 2-6.
Note:
This switch supports four concurrent Telnet/SSH sessions.
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.
Basic Configuration
Console Connection
The CLI program provides two different command levels — normal
access level (Normal Exec) and privileged access level (Privileged Exec).
The commands available at the Normal Exec level are a limited subset of
those available at the Privileged Exec level and only allow you to display
information and use basic utilities. To fully configure the switch
parameters, you must access the CLI at the Privileged Exec level.
