Chapter 1: Introduction
1-6 DLE49-MA User’s Guide
1.1.10 Management
Management of the DLE49-MA module and DLM6C-AA chassis and
any optional equipment is accomplished using Local Management tools
or remote SNMP management stations. Local Management is accessible
through the RS232 COM port on the front panel using a local VT100
terminal, or a remote VT100 terminal via a modem connection, and
in-band via a Telnet connection. In-band remote management is possible
through any SNMP compliant Network Management Software.
Local Management described in this user’s guide provides the ability to
manage the DLE49-MA. For information about Local Management for an
optional HSIM, refer to the HSIM user’s guide.
1.1.11 Switching Options
The DLE49-MA provides 802.1Q switching between all of the front
panel interfaces including the optional HSIM of the DLE49-MA. In the
802.1Q mode (the default mode of operation), the switch functions as an
802.1D switch until VLANs are configured.
The 802.1Q switching option allows for migration to Virtual Network
technologies without requiring the replacement of existing equipment.
1.1.12 Distributed Chassis Management
From a management perspective, the DLM6C-AA chassis can be viewed
as a single entity with a single IP address. Its management functions are
distributed to all modules. This means a single module in the chassis, such
as the DLE49-MA, can be used to manage the entire chassis, and any
other attached module through Local Management, SNMP, or Telnet
applications.
1.1.13 Optional HSIMs
The DLE49-MA provides a slot for an optional High Speed Interface
Module (HSIM) for additional connectivity to various networking
technologies. The HSIMs available for the DLE49-MA are listed in the
SmartTrunk User’s Guide.
