Once your system is initially configured (and thus assigned an IP address), you may use a variety
of methods to remotely access and manage your system. This chapter describes many of these
methods.
For information on first-time access (either local or remote), refer to
Accessing the SmartSwitch
Remote Access Module
.
The SmartSwitch Remote Access Module has various tools to manage the system remotely. You
may combine several of these tools to provide a complete, customized remote network
management system. In this chapter we will describe the tools, and explain several options to
manage your system.
These tools are:
•
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
•
Telnet
•
WIN95 Dial-up Networking
