In-Band Management

In-band network management allows you to manage, control, and monitor the IntraSwitch and any installed expansion modules over the Ethernet network.

You can perform these functions by accessing the IntraSwitch via any of the following methods:

❏By connecting with a Telnet program and using the Local Management Interface.

❏By connecting with any common World Wide Web browser, and using the Web Management Interface.

❏By connecting with any SNMP-based network management application and using its interface.

To manage the IntraSwitch via in-band management:

1	Make sure the network to which the IntraSwitch
	is connected is functioning.
2	Make sure the IntraSwitch is configured with
	valid IP information.
	See “Configuring for Management” on page 2-8.
3	Connect to the IntraSwitch via Telnet, with a
	Web browser, or with any SNMP-based network

management application.
