Chapter1 Product Overview

Management Options

•SNMP network management

You can manage switches from a SNMP-compatible management station that is running platforms

such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager. The switch supports a comprehensive set of Management

Information Base (MIB) extensions and four Remote Monitoring (RMON) groups. See the switch

software configuration guide on Cisco.com and the documentation that came with your SNMP

application for more information.

Network Configurations

See the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com for an explanation of network configuration

concepts. The software configuration guide also provides examples of network configurations that use

the switch to create dedicated network segments that are interconnected through Ethernet connections.
