This chapter provides easy instructions for configuring
the CoreBuilder
® 3500 system for management
access. After you decide how you want to manage
your system, follow the configuration instructions for
your preferred type of management access.
About System Management
The Administration Console is an internal,
character-oriented, menu-driven user interface for
performing system administration. You can access the
Administration Console using the serial ports or
Internet Protocol (IP). For more information, see the
Command Reference Guide on the Software and
Documentation CD .
For more complete network management, use an
external SNMP-based application, such as 3Com’s
Transcend
® Enterprise Manager or another network
management application, and access the system
using IP.
3Com also provides the embedded Web
Management suite of applications. This set of system
administration tools allows you to manage the system
over the Internet through a Web browser. The
Software and Documentation CD includes some
additional installable tools and the Web Management
User Guide .
