Chapter 3: Switch Management
30 GE-DS-82 and 82-PoE Ethernet Managed Switch User Manual
You can change these settings, if desired, after you log on. This management method
is often preferred because you can remain connected and monitor the system during
system reboots. Also, certain error messages are sent to the serial port, regardless of
the interface through which the associated action was initiated. A Macintosh or PC
attachment can use any terminal-emulation program for connecting to the terminal
serial port. A workstation attachment under UNIX can use an emulator such as TIP.
Protocols
The Managed Switch supports the following protocols:
•
Virtual terminal protocols, such as Telnet
•
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
Virtual Terminal Protocols
A virtual terminal protocol is a software program, such as Telnet, that allows you to
establish a management session from a Macintosh, a PC, or a UNIX workstation.
Because Telnet runs over TCP/IP, you must have at least one IP address configured
on the Managed Switch before you can establish access to it with a virtual terminal
protocol.
Terminal emulation differs from a virtual terminal protocol in that you must connect a
terminal directly to the console (serial) port.
Telnet Setup
To access the Managed Switch through a Telnet session:
1. Connect an RJ-45 cable from the PC to a switch port on the Managed Switch.
2.
Enable the Hyper Terminal program. A terminal program is required to make the
software connection to the Managed Switch. Windows'
Hyper Terminal program
is a good choice. Hyper Terminal can be accessed from the Start menu. Click
START , then Programs , Accessories and then Hyper Terminal .
3. The following screen will appear. Input a new connection name. You should use
something like the model name of your switch.
