CHAPTER 3
CONFIGURING YOUR ELS10-26
The ELS10-26 does not require any additional configuration to
operate as a standard, transparent switch. However, if you want to
use any of the ELS10-26’s advanced functions, you must first
assign an IP (Internet Protocol) address to any of the ports on the
ELS10-26 that you use to communicate with a Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) manager.
To initially assign an IP address, you can use the Local Console
Manager (LCM). LCM is a command-line interface built into the
ELS10-26. It allows you to configure and manage the ELS10-26
through the out-of-band RS232C connection attached to any non-
intelligent terminal, or a PC emulating a non-intelligent terminal.
(See Section 3.1, Assigning IP Addresses.)
Once you have assigned an IP address, you can use any of the
following network management tools to configure and manage the
ELS10-26:
• SPECTRUM
• SPEL
• SPMA
• Any SNMP-based NMS
Configuration parameters are stored in an SNMP standard
Management Information Base (MIB). All ELS10-26 MIB variables
are listed and described in the ELS10-26 MIB Reference Guide.
Note:
There are some configuration options that cannot be configured
using LCM commands. You may need to modify your configuration
using an NMS. See Section 3.14, Modifying MIB Variables.
