If an account becomes locked, it will remain locked until the duration time has elapsed, the Remote Console Switch is power-cycled, or an Administrator unlocks the account.

1Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the Users category in the left column.

2Select the check box next to the user name you wish to unlock.

3Click the Unlock button. The lock icon next to the username will disappear.

To specify the length of time a user account remains locked:

1Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the Users category in the left column.

2Click to enable the Enable Lock-outscheck box.

3Type the number of hours that a user will be locked out (1 to 99).

NOTE: Only Remote Console Switch Administrators may specify lock-out parameters.

To disable the Security Lockout feature:

1Click the Configure tab in the on-board web interface, then click the Users category in the left column.

2Clear the Enable Lock-outscheck box. The Duration field is disabled.

NOTE: Disabling Security Lock-Out will have no affect on users that are already locked out.

Enabling and Configuring SNMP

SNMP is a protocol used to communicate management information between network management applications and Remote Console Switches. Other SNMP managers can communicate with your Remote Console Switch by accessing MIB-II and the public portion of the enterprise MIB. When you select the SNMP category, the on-board web interface will retrieve the SNMP parameters from the unit.
