1.1 Information
This chapter describes all of the basic configuration tasks, including system
information and any management of the switch (e.g. Time, Account, IP, Syslog and
SNMP).
After you login, the switch shows the system information. This is the default
startup
page. It lists the basic information of the system, including “Model Name”, “System
Description”, “Contact”, “Device Name”, “System Up Time”, “BIOS Version”,
“Firmware Version”, “Hardware
-
Mechanical Version”, “Serial Number”, “Host IP
Address”, “Host Mac Address”, “Device Port”, “RAM Size”, and “Flash Size”. With this
information, you will know the software version used, MAC address, serial number,
how many ports good and so on. This is helpful if the switch malfunctions
.
The switch system information is provided here.
