HiView Switch Management

The HiSpeed switch can be configured using Hitachi’s HiView graphical user interface (GUI) application. HiView uses Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to communicate to the SNMP agent residing on the switch. Configurations to the switch can be made easily by simply dragging and dropping icons from one window to another. The HiSpeed switch supports the following RMON groups: 1,2,3 and 9. A third party Network Management software is needed to probe the switch for statistics, history, alarms, and events. The following Network Management software have been tested with the HiSpeed switch:

❒SNMPC by Castle Rock

❒MeterWare by Technically Elite (further testing needed for Hitachi’s private MIBs)

❒SNMPTalk by Epilouge

However, any Network Management software will run on the HiSpeed switch.
