Your Switch can operate in its default state, that is, you can install it and
it will work straight away (plug-and-play). However, to make full use of
the features offered by the Switch, and to change and monitor the way it
works, you have to access the management software that resides on the
Switch. This is known as managing the Switch.
Managing the Switch can help you to improve the efficiency of the
Switch and, therefore, the overall performance of your network.

methods of accessing the management software to manage the Switch.
