This chapter introduces you to SuperStack™ II Switch 2200 administration
and briefly describes the system parameters that you can configure.
About Switch 2200
Administration
The Switch 2200 software is installed at the factory in flash memory on the
system processor. Because this software boots from flash memory automat-
ically when you power on your system, the system is immediately ready for
use in your network. However, you might need to configure certain param-
eters for the system to operate effectively in your networking environment.
Additionally, when managing your Switch 2200, you might want to view
important MAC, port, bridge, and IP statistics. The Switch 2200 Administra-
tion Console allows you to configure your system and display these impor-
tant statistics. For more complete network management, you can use an
external application, such as 3Com’s Transcend® Enterprise Manager.
