Horizon Compact Plus Release 1.0.1 Wireless Ethernet Product User Manual
– Volume 2
17.0 System Management
The Horizon Compact Plus system can be fully managed locally or remotely. Horizon Compact Plus
supports Telnet access, SNMP management and a Web interface accessible through the IP network.
Refer to Volume 1 of this manual for details of enabling Telnet access to the system. The entire
Command Line Interface (CLI) command set is available through Telnet. The entire list of system
parameters is available through SNMP access. The Web interface provides access to performance
parameters and limited system configuration.
Management traffic can be configured as in-band or out-of-band.
17.1 In-band and Out-of-band Management
The Horizon Compact Plus has two physical 10/100/1000 Base-t (GigE) Ethernet ports, Port 1 and Port
2. Each physical port can also be independently configured as two virtual 10/100 Base-t data ports.
Ethernet Port 1 becomes p1 and p4 and Ethernet Port 2 becomes p2 and p3. Associated with ports p1
through p4 are four virtual ports, dp1 through dp4.
Out-of-band management can be carried on any one of port p1 through p4. In-band management can
be carried on any one of the virtual ports dp1 through dp4.
Both in-band and out-of-band management allow Telnet, or Web, sessions to be established through
one Horizon Compact Plus system, over the radio link to the far end Horizon Compact Plus system. All
management traffic must arrive on the configured port, or it will be ignored by the system.
Management traffic includes:
1. Telnet traffic and associated CLI commands
2. SNMP management
3. ping
4. FTP, used for configuration backup and restore and software upgrades.
5. HTTP
All ports may be configured to operate with or without management VLANs (see Section 7.0).
The key points to consider when choosing the system management configuration are as follows:
Inband management reduces the port count requirement on the sub-tending switch, since no
separate management port is required for management.
Out-of-band management requires a separate switchport in the sub-tending switch to connect.
Any port that is part of a port group cannot be used for in-band or out-of-band management
(see Section 14.2).
