Using the BayStack 303 and 304 Ethernet Switches

Network Management through a Serial I/O Connection

Each BayStack 303 and 304 switch can be managed using a PC or terminal connected to the switch through the RS-232 console port located on the front of the switch. The serial connection allows the network manager to view statistics and change parameter settings using the built-in user interface.

See “Connecting to the Console Port” on page 2-11 for instructions.

Network Management Using a Telnet Connection

Telnet is a common terminal-emulation application used in TCP/IP networks for remote terminal access to computer devices. You can use Telnet over an Ethernet network to remotely configure and monitor the BayStack switches.

Once you have configured an IP address for the switch, access to its management system is available from any networked resource using a standard Telnet application.

To open a Telnet session, follow these steps:

1.Check to make sure that Telnet is enabled.

a.From the Main Menu, type 2 to display the System Configuration menu.

b.From the System Configuration menu, type 1 to display the Switch Network Configuration.

c.Check 5---Telnet Access and verify that it is enabled (default setting for this parameter is enabled). If this parameter is disabled, then no Telnet access is allowed from any device.

2.With Telnet Access enabled, invoke the Telnet application with the IP address of the switch from any TCP/IP-based workstation.

This action displays the Telnet Password Verification screen.

3.Enter the Telnet password to enable the Telnet session.

With Telnet enabled, the switch can support up to two Telnet users.
