Fast EtherHub 3500 System User’s Guide
Configuring the System 4-3
Local In-Band Telnet Connection
Before accessing a hub
using a Telnet connection, be
sure you have already set the
agent’s IP address via the on-
board configuration program or
boot protocol.
Prior to accessing the hub via an in-band Telnet connection,
you must first configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask,
and default gateway using an out-of-band connection or boot
protocol. (Refer to
Using the Fast EtherHub 3500 Configuration Program
later in this chapter.) After configuring the hub’s IP parameters,
you can Telnet into its on-board menu-driven configuration
program from anywhere within the attached network.
Local In-Band Network Connection
If you want to use optional network management software (e.g.,
Accton’s AccView/Open) to configure the Fast EtherHub 3500
System, then first set up your Network Management Station
(NMS). The in-band NMS is the personal computer used to run
your network management software.
Before accessing a hub
using in-band management
software, be sure you have
already set the agent’s IP
address via the on-board
configuration program or
boot protocol.
If proper network connections are available, you can access the
on-board management agent from anywhere in the attached
network. However, prior to accessing the Fast EtherHub-12mi
via in-band management software, you must first configure the
hub with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
using a direct connection or boot protocol.
Accton provides optional Windows-based network management
software called AccView/Open. Any PC running the AccView/
Open program can serve as your in-band network management
station. You may purchase this package through your Accton
dealer. Also note that the AccView/Open Fast EtherHub 3500
Manager module can be easily integrated into most third-party
management platforms.

After completing hardware installation, configure the hub using the
out-of-band program or optional in-band network management
software (e.g., AccView/Open). Refer to the following sections for
details on on-board configuration. Refer to the appropriate manual
for information on optional in-band management software.
