Switch Management Concepts
29
Activities on the Switch can be monitored with these components,
while the Switch can be manipulated to carry out specific tasks.
Diagnostic (Console) Port (RS-232 DCE)
Out-of-band management requires connecting a terminal, such as a
VT-100 or a PC running terminal emulation program (such as
HyperTerminal, which is automatically installed with Microsoft
Windows) a to the RS-232 DCE console port of the Switch. Switch
management using the RS-232 DCE console port is called
Local
Console Management
to differentiate it from management done via
management platforms, such as D-View, HP OpenView, etc.
The console port is set for the following configuration:
??
Baud rate:
9,600
??
Data width:
8 bits
??
Parity:
none
??
Stop bits:
1
??
Flow Control
none
Make sure the terminal or PC you are using to make this
connection is configured to match these settings.
If you are having problems making this connection on a PC, make
sure the emulation is set to VT-100 or ANSI. If you still don’t see
anything, try hitting <Ctrl> + r to refresh the screen.
IP Addresses and SNMP Community
Names
Each Switch has its own IP Address, which is used for
communication with an SNMP network manager or other TCP/IP
