Intel 654655-001 manual Configuring and, Managing the Switch

2	Configuring and
	Managing the Switch

You don’t need to read this chapter unless you want to change the Express Switching Hub’s default configuration (see Appendix A for a list of defaults) or intend to manage the switch. The switch is ready to go simply by plugging it in and turning the power on.

However, if you need to change the default configuration or manage the switch, there are two ways:

• Use SNMP-compliant management software (not included). However, you must first use the Console Manager to assign an IP address to the switch.

• Use the Express Switching Hub’s internal Console Manager.
