Chapter 1: Introduction
The RAD requests start out at an interval of 1 second. The interval then doubles after every transmission until an interval of 300 seconds is reached. At this point, the interval remains at 300 seconds. The RAD requests continue until an IP address is received from a server, or an IP address is entered using Local Management.
1.3.6Management
Management of the 2H23-50R or 2H33-37R is accomplished using SNMP compliant management tools for in-band Local Management. Out-of-band Local Management is provided through the RJ45 COM port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator. In-band remote management is possible through any SNMP compliant Network Management Software.
Local Management provides the ability to manage the 2H23-50R and 2H33-37R and any of the optional Fast Ethernet Interface Modules installed in slots 5 and 6 of the 2H23-50R, or an optional High Speed Interface Module (HSIM) in a 2H33-37R.
The associated HSIM user’s guide provides detailed information about the HSIM Local Management.
1.3.7Switching Options
The 2H23-50R and 2H33-37R provide 802.1D switching, 802.1Q switching or SecureFast Switching Virtual Network Services between all of the front panel interfaces including Fast Ethernet Interface Modules installed in a 2H23-50R or an HSIM installed in a 2H33-37R.
IEEE 802.1Q switching and SecureFast switching allow for future migration to Virtual Network technologies without requiring the replacement of existing equipment.
