5 Switch management
5.1 Management interfaces
PSW and SWU switches have the following options of remote management:
Web interface, Telnet, SNMP. It is also possible to manage the switch using a local
USB console.
Web interface contains a full set of managed parameters with a detailed
explanation and a short summary. The switch interface is available in Russian and in
English. Connection to the switch is possible using a standard Web browser.
Telnet is an alternative way of device configuring using a console application,
such as Microsoft Telnet, PuTTY, Hyper Terminal or others.
Management by means of SNMP is currently implemented in the test version
and not all commands are supported in full. SNMP is recommended for monitoring
rather that management of the switch.
Management by means of the USB console has the same console interface as
Telnet interface.
5.2 What you need to know before connection
Attention!
TFortis PSW switches have an integrated PoE injector on Fast Ethernet ports. It
means that 48~55 V voltage can be supplied to these ports.
Before connecting the IP cameras, make sure that PSW port parameters
correspond to the camera parameters.
Before connecting network devices that do not support PoE (such as a
computer or laptop) to the Fast Ethernet port, disconnect the PoE on this
port by removing the jumpers. For more information about PoE hardware
configuration, see Operating Manual, Section 2.3.
Attention!
Power supply elements are under high voltage. It is strictly forbidden to
touch conducting elements of the power supply unit under voltage.
