Configuration Options

For advanced management capability, the TigerStack 100 management

agent provides a menu-driven system configuration program. This

program can be accessed by a direct or modem connection to the serial

port on the rear panel (out-of-band), or by a Telnet connection over the

network (in-band).

The management agent is based on SNMP (Simple Network Management

Protocol). This SNMP agent permits the switch to be managed from any

PC in the network using in-band management software (such as SMC’s

EliteView).

The management agent also includes an embedded HTTP Web agent. This

Web agent can be accessed using a standard Web browser from any

computer attached to the network.

The system configuration program and the SNMP agent support

management functions such as:

• Enable/disable any port

• Set the communication mode for any port

• Configure SNMP parameters

• Configure VLANs or multicast filtering

• Display system information or statistics

• Configure the switch to join a Spanning Tree

• Download system firmware

• Restart the system
