Proactive Networking

The Series 8200zl Switch has built-in management capabilities that proactively help you manage your network including:

■finding and helping you fix the most common network error conditions (for example, faulty network cabling, and non-standard network topologies)

■informing you of the problem with clear, easy-to-understand messages

■recommending network configuration changes to enhance the performance of your network

The following interfaces provide tests, indicators, and an event log that can be used to monitor the switch and its network connections, and to help you take advantage of these proactive networking features:

■ProCurve Manager - an SNMP-based network management tool included with your switch

■A graphical web browser interface you can use to manage your switch from a PC that is running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Communicator.

■A full-featured easy-to-use console interface you can access by merely connecting a standard terminal or PC running a terminal emulator to the switch’s console port. The cable to make that connection is provided with your switch. The console interface is also accessible through a telnet connection.

See the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the Management and Configuration Guide for more information on using these software tools to diagnose and manage your switch, which is on the ProCurve Web site. See page 5-1for details.
