Figure 1-5. Network Management Module

This switch includes a Network Management Module on the rear panel. This module can manage the switch and the attached stack. It offers a variety of management options, including SNMP, RMON and a Web-based interface. This module also includes an RS-232 port for out-of-band management. This is an RS-232 serial port with a DB-9 connector. A PC may be connected to this port for configuration and monitoring purposes out-of band via a full- handshaking null modem cable. You can also make a remote connection to this port via modems. This allows you to access the out-of-band interface. (See Apendix B for a description of wiring options.)

The Network Management Module provides a wide range of advanced performance-enhancing features. Multicast filtering provides support for real-time network applications. Port-based and tagged VLANs provide traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. QoS priority queueing ensures the minimum delay for moving real-time multimedia data across the network. Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks
