When you have made your connection and installed Quick Config
Manager, you are ready to manage the stack. Quick Config Manager
uses COM 1 as the default serial port on your management st ation.
If you want to change this, refer to “Running Quick Conf ig Manager”
on page B-4.
Over the Network You must have an IP stack on your management station, so that you
can manage over a TCP/IP network.
You can manage the hub or stack over the network, thr ough any of
the ports. However, for the communication to work over the network,
the port through which your communication reaches the stack must be
connected to segment 1 (either direct ly or indirectly) of the hub with
the IP address configured.
