Functions

Description

 

Device

Reboots the switch and provides informa-

 

 

tion about the firmware in the switch. Also

 

 

enables the switch’s firmware to be

 

 

upgraded.

 

 

 

 

Configuration

Ensures the switch’s configuration is safe

 

 

by saving it to the flash memory, by back-

 

 

ing up to disk and by being able to restore

 

 

it again should it be lost. If necessary, the

 

 

switch can be returned to the factory

 

 

default configuration.

 

 

 

 

Monitoring

Provides comprehensive details for Span-

 

 

ning Tree statistics and RMON facilities,

 

 

as well as Hardware information and an

 

 

Access Overview.
