Management Methods The MIL-SM801XX series supports the following management methods:
n Console and Telnet Management
n Web-based Management
n SNMP Network Management
Console and Telnet Management
Console Management is done through the serial Console Port. This method
requires a direct connection between a PC and the MIL-SM801XX. Telnet
management is done over the network. Once the MIL-S801XX has an assigned IP
address and is on the network, you can use Telnet to login and make configuration
changes.
Web-based Management
The switch provides an embedded HTML web site residing in flash memory. It offers
advanced management features and allows users to manage the MIL-SM801XX
from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. For more information, see chapter 6.
SNMP Network Management
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides a way to monitor and
control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistic collection,
performance, and security.
