Hot Remove Function
The EtherHub 1500 system supports a “hot remove” capability
that allows you to connect/disconnect the EtherHub 1500 hubs
from the system without disrupting the network
Preparing for Configuration Management
There are two methods for configuring the EtherHub 1500
system - using the out-of-band program or using the Configure
button. Optional in-band network management software,
AccView/Open, may also be used to configure the system.
Contact your Accton dealer for more information on
AccView/Open.
Out-of-Band Configuration
Out-of-band configuration requires a computer as your working
platform. There are two valid connection types to the hub:
Out-of-band onsite connection
The workstation, normally within the vicinity of the hub, is
directly connected to the serial port on the hub.
Out-of-band modem connection
The workstation is connected to the remote EtherHub-16mi
+
via modems.
The physical setup and connections required for out-of-band
management are described in greater detail under
Preparing for

the PC's floppy drive.
