Monitoring Features
These are the monitoring features:
•
Switch LEDs that provide port- and switch-level status
•
MAC address notification traps and RADIUS accounting for tracking users on a network by storing
the MAC addresses that the switch has learned or removed
•
Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) and Remote SPAN (RSPAN) for traffic monitoring on any port or
VLAN (except for the fa0 interface)
•
SPAN and RSPAN support of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to monitor, repel, and report
network security violations

Four groups (history, statistics, alarms, and events) of embedded RMON agents for network
monitoring and traffic analysis
•
Syslog facility for logging system messages about authentication or authorization errors, resource
issues, and time-out events

Default Settings After Initial Switch Configuration
The switch is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring only that you assign basic IP information
to the switch and connect it to the other devices in your network. If you have specific network needs,
you can change the interface-specific and system-wide settings.
Note
For information about assigning an IP address by using the browser-based Express Setup program, see
the getting started guide. For information about assigning an IP address by using the CLI-based setup
program, see the hardware installation guide.
If you do not configure the switch at all, the switch operates with these default settings:
•
Default switch IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway is 0.0.0.0. The fa0 interface might
receive an IP Address from the DHCP server. For more information, see
Chapter 3, “Assigning the
Switch IP Address and Default Gateway,”
and
Chapter 20, “Configuring DHCP Features and IP
Source Guard.”
•
Default domain name is not configured. For more information, see
Chapter 3, “Assigning the Switch
IP Address and Default Gateway.”
