CONFIGURATION AND MANAGEMENT

System Monitoring

The TigerSwitch 100 units can be monitored using either the front-panel Configure Button and LEDs, SNMP and Telnet or the Console Interface.

Monitoring via the Configure Button and LEDs

The Configure button may be used with the front-panel LEDs to display various system operations characteristics. To set the display mode using the Configure button:

1.Use a long press (>2 sec) to initiate display functions. The “Status” LED will begin blinking upon release of the button. (See Chapter 1, “About the TigerSwitch 100,” for an illustration of the front-panel LEDs)

2.Once the “status” LED is blinking, use short presses (<2 sec) of the Configure button to cycle through the various monitoring options.

3.The function chosen will be displayed on the LED array for each port.

The chart on the following page details the functions indicated by the LEDs while in a lit (green) condition.
