Advanced Management, Rmon Management | Asante Technologies 35160

Chapter 4. Advanced Management

This chapter deals with the advanced management of the switch, via the console mode or telnet connection. See Chapter 5 Web-Based Management for information on managing the switch through the web browser.

The following sections describe the these advanced topics for management of the IntraCore 35160:

•SNMP and RMON Management

•Security Management

•VLAN Management

•Multicast Management

4.1SNMP and RMON Management

The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) may be used to manage the IntraCore 35160. The SNMP agent supports database objects that are defined in the following management information bases (MIBs):

•MIB II (RFC 1213)

•Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)

•RMON (RFC 1757) 4 groups—Ethernet Statistics, Ethernet History, Alarm, and Events (see the next section for details)

•Private Asanté 35160 MIB

Any SNMP-based network management application can be used to manage the switch. For information on management of switches, refer to the SNMP software manual. Also, see Chapter 6 SNMP Management for more information on SNMP protocol.

For details on console-based SNMP settings, see “SNMP Configuration” in Chapter 3.

RMON Management

Remote Network Monitoring (RMON) allows the network manager to gather data on the network’s traffic for future retrieval. RMON is an Internet Standard defined in RFC1757.

Using RMON, a network monitor (also called a probe) listens to traffic on the network and gathers statistics that may be retrieved later by a network management station using SNMP, as described in the previous section.

The four groups of RMON that are supported by the switch are described in Chapter 6 SNMP Management.

The IntraCore 35160 switches provide control of the RMON groups only through SNMP. For information on controlling RMON groups, please refer to the documentation for the SNMP management application.
