Web Browser Management
Overview The IntraSwitch 6216M and 6224 each have a built-in HTTP
server which allows you to access management features via any
standard World Wide Web browser.
By accessing the HTTP server, you can easily view current
IntraSwitch status at a glance, administrative information, port
parameters, and management statistics. You can also
conveniently download the latest software version from the
Asanté FTP site.
Web Browser Management
Any networked computer with a supported Web browser can
access, configure, and manage the IntraSwitch and any installed
expansion modules. This provides easy-to-use management
capabilities without the need for additional management
software.
SNMP-Based Management
The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is used to
manage the IntraSwitch and any installed expansion module.
The SNMP agent supports database objects that are defined in
the following management information bases (MIBs):
MIB II (RFC 1213)
Bridge MIB (RFC 1493)
RMON (RFC 1757) 1 group
Private IntraSwitch MIB
Any SNMP-based network management application, such as
Web-based management software, can be used to manage the
IntraSwitch. See “SNMP-Based Management Software” in
Chapter 4 for more information.
This section explains how to access the HTTP server and view
the management features it offers.
