Telnet Connection
Prior to accessing the switch 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 BOOTP protocol. After configuring the switch’s IP
parameters, you can access the on-board configuration program from anywhere
within the attached network.
Note: Up to four Telnet sessions are supported.
In-Band Network Connection
The on-board configuration program can be accessed using Telnet or a Web
browser (Internet Explorer 4.0 or above, or Netscape Navigator 4.0 or above)
from any computer attached to the network. It can also be managed from a
network computer using management software such as AccView.
Notes: 1. Prior to accessing the switch via a direct network connection, first
configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
using an out-of-band connection or BOOTP protocol.
2. The on-board program only provides access to basic configuration
functions. To access the full range of SNMP management functions, you
must use SNMP-based network management software. Accton provides a
Windows-based SNMP software package called AccView/Open. If you
require this software, please contact your Accton distributor. Also note
that AccView’s CheetahSwitch Manager module can be easily integrated
into most third-party management platforms.
