Initial Configuration

Trap Receivers

You can also specify SNMP stations that are to receive traps from the switch.

To configure a trap receiver, complete the following steps:

1.From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode prompt, type “snmp-server host host-addresscommunity-string”, where “host-address” is the IP address for the trap receiver and “community-string” is the string associated with that host. Press <Enter>.

2.In order to configure the switch to send SNMP notifications, you must enter at least one snmp-server enable traps command. Type “snmp-server enable traps type”, where “type” is either authentication or link-up-down. Press <Enter>.

Console(config)#snmp-server enable traps link-up-down Console(config)#

Saving Configuration Settings

Configuration commands only modify the running configuration file and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To save all your configuration changes in nonvolatile storage, you must copy the running configuration file to the start-up configuration file using the “copy” command.

To save the current configuration settings, enter the following command:

1.From the Privileged Exec mode prompt, type “copy running-configstartup-config” and press <Enter>.

2.Enter the name of the start-up file. Press <Enter>.

Console#copy running-config startup-config Startup configuration file name []: startup

\Write to FLASH Programming. \Write to FLASH finish. Success.

Managing System Files

The switch’s flash memory supports three types of system files that can be managed by the CLI program, Web interface, or SNMP. The switch’s file system allows files to be uploaded and downloaded, copied, deleted, and set as a start-up file.

The three types of files are:

Configuration: These files store system configuration information and are created when configuration settings are saved. Saved configuration files can be selected as a system start-up file or can be uploaded via TFTP to a server for backup. A file named “Factory_Default_Config.cfg” contains all the system default settings and cannot be deleted from the system. See the Saving Configuration Settings section on page 16 for more information.

Operation Code: System software that is executed after boot-up, also known as run-time code. This code runs the switch operations and provides the CLI, Web and SNMP management interfaces. See the Managing Firmware section on page 31 for more information.

Diagnostic Code: Software that is run during system boot-up, also known as POST (Power On

Self-Test).

Due to the size limit of the flash memory, the switch supports only two operation code files, and two diagnostic code files. However, you can have as many configuration files as available flash memory space allows.

In the system flash memory, one file of each type must be set as the start-up file. During a system boot, the diagnostic and operation code files set as the start-up file are run, and then the start-up configuration file is loaded.

Note that configuration files should be downloaded using a file name that reflects the contents or usage of the file settings. If you download directly to the running-config, the system will reboot, and the settings will have to be copied from the running-config to a permanent file.

NXA-ENET24 specifications

The AMX NXA-ENET24 is a versatile and powerful networked control interface designed to meet the growing demands of modern AV systems. This network switch offers an exceptional combination of reliability, performance, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for professional environments such as conference rooms, educational facilities, and control rooms.

One of the key features of the NXA-ENET24 is its 24-port configuration, allowing for extensive connectivity options. Each port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, ensuring that high bandwidth applications are handled with ease. Additionally, the switch incorporates advanced auto-negotiation technology, which automatically configures the optimal speed and duplex mode for connected devices. This ensures seamless connectivity and minimizes the risk of network disruptions.

The NXA-ENET24 is designed with advanced management capabilities, including support for VLANs, which helps to segment network traffic for enhanced security and performance. Network administrators can easily create virtual local area networks to optimize traffic flow and reduce congestion. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments where multiple AV systems operate concurrently.

Another significant characteristic of the NXA-ENET24 is its support for Power over Ethernet, or PoE. This feature enables the switch to deliver electrical power alongside data through the network cables. As a result, devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points can be powered directly from the switch, simplifying deployment and reducing the need for additional power sources.

Monitoring and management of the switch are made easier through a user-friendly interface. The NXA-ENET24 supports SNMP for network management, allowing users to monitor performance metrics, configure settings, and receive alerts in case of issues. This level of oversight is crucial for maintaining the stability of AV systems in mission-critical applications.

Durability is another hallmark of the NXA-ENET24 design. The switch features a robust chassis that is engineered to withstand the rigors of professional use. With cooling mechanisms in place and a fanless design, the NXA-ENET24 operates quietly and efficiently, making it suitable for environments where noise is a concern.

In conclusion, the AMX NXA-ENET24 is a powerful, reliable, and feature-rich network switch that effectively supports modern AV applications. With its extensive connectivity options, advanced management capabilities, PoE support, and durable design, it is an excellent choice for integrators and organizations looking to optimize their network infrastructure.
