Using Telnet
Once you have specified the module’s IP parameters, you can use any
Telnet application that emulates a VT100 terminal to communicate with
it over the network. To open a Telnet session, specify the IP address of
the Switch 1005. For example:
telnet 191.120.131.6
For further information on using Telnet, refer to the documentation
supplied with the application.
Up to three active Telnet sessions can access the Switch 1005
concurrently. If a connection to a Telnet session is lost inadvertently, the
connection is closed by the Switch 1005 after 2 to 3 minutes of
inactivity.
Using an SNMP Network Manager
Once you have set up the IP parameters of the Switch 1005, you can
use any SNMP Network Manager for in-band management, provided
the Management Information Base (MIB) is correctly installed at your
network management station.
3Com provides the Transcend range of SNMP Network Managers, the
use of which is not described in this User Guide; refer to the User
Guides that accompany the software. To manage the Switch 1005 with
a Network Manager from another vendor, you will need to ensure you
have the correct MIB. Contact your local support representative for
advice.
