Management

Management

Management of the module can be either in‐band or out‐of‐band. In‐band remote management is possible using Telnet, Enterasys Networks’ NetSight® management application, or the WebView application. Out‐of‐band management is provided through the DB9 Console port connector on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator.

Switch Configuration Using WebView

Enterasys Networks’ HTTP‐based Web management application (WebView) is an intuitive web tool for simple management tasks.

Switch Configuration Using CLI Commands

The CLI commands enable you to perform more complete SecureStack A2 configuration management tasks.

For CLI command set information and how to configure the module, refer to the SecureStack A2 Configuration Guide.

Standards Compatibility

The A2H254‐16 is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3‐2002, 802.3ae‐2002, 802.1D‐1998, and 802.1Q‐1998 standards. The SecureStack A2 provides IEEE 802.1D‐1998 Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability of the network and protect against “loop” conditions.

LANVIEW Diagnostic LEDs

LANVIEW diagnostic LEDs serve as an important troubleshooting aid by providing an easy way to observe the status of individual ports and overall network operations.
