Accessing Switch Management SmartStack STS16-20RM/STS16-20FRM Token Ring Switches, P/N: 9032957-01
5. Accessing Switch Management
The switches can be configured in two ways:
1. Using the switch console .
You can access the switch console interface
— directly, by connecting a VT100 terminal emulator to the RS-232 port
labeled MANAGEMENT.
OR
— remotely, via Telnet.
2. Using SNMP based graphical management applications :
— SmartStack Manager for Windows
— Other Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) based applications.
Overview
This chapter only describes how to access the switch console via the
MANAGEMENT port. Refer to the section “Console/Telnet Sessions” on page 131
for information on configuring serial console and/or telnet console sessions.
Network management applications (in-band management) are beyond the scope of
this guide. However,
note that to be able to manage the switch by the network
management application via SNMP, you will have to configure a few settings first
in the switch console. These are typically the IP Address, SNMP Community, and
Trap Receiver.
