Management
In-band network management allows you to manage, control,
and monitor the IntraSwitch 5212 and each of its ports over the
Ethernet network.
You can perform these functions by accessing the IntraSwitch
via one of the following methods:
❏ By connecting with a terminal emulation pro-
gram such as Telnet
1
and using the Local Man-
agement Interface.
❏ By connecting with a World Wide Web browser
and using the Web Management Interface.
❏ By connecting with any SNMP-based network
management application and using its interface.
To manage the IntraSwitch 5212 via in-band management:
1
Make sure the network to which the IntraSwitch
5212 is connected is up and functioning.
2
Make sure the IntraSwitch 5212 is configured
with valid IP information.
See "Setting up for Management" on page 2-12.
3
Connect to the IntraSwitch 5212 with a terminal
emulator or any SNMP-based network manage-
ment application.
Terminal Emulator
See Chapter 5, "Console Management" for infor-
mation on managing the IntraSwitch 5212 with a
terminal emulator.
∆ Note: All management screens using a termi-
nal emulator are identical to those of the out-
of-band Console interface.
1. Telnet is a common terminal emulation application used in TCP/IP net-
works for remote terminal access to network devices.
