Management
The IntraSwitch can be managed by any of the following
methods:
❏ Out-of-band (via the console port)
❏ In-band Telnet
❏ HTTP server (Web browser management)
❏ SNMP-compatible network manager
Console/Telnet Management
Through Console and Telnet operation, the IntraSwitch can be
configured and managed manually using the Configuration
Menu option. In addition to “Configuration,” options are
provided for “General Information” and “Statistics.” See Chapter
5 “Console Management” for more information.
Web Browser Management
The IntraSwitch has a built-in HTTP (Hypertext Transfer
Protocol) server which facilitates management with any World
Wide Web browser.
Refer to Chapter 8 for information on using a Web browser to
manage the IntraSwitch.
SNMP-Based Management
The SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) may be
used to manage the IntraSwitch and any installed expansion
module. Any SNMP-based network management application
such as Web-based management software can be used. Refer to
Chapter 4 and to Chapter 8 for more information.

Capacity
Each 10Base-T/100Base-TX port can forward Ethernet
minimum-sized 64-byte packets at the maximum attainable rate
of 14,880 or 148,000 packets per second (pps).
The IntraSwitch fully supports the 802.1d transparent Ethernet
bridging standard. IEEE 802.1d compliance provides automatic
address learning, packet filtering, protection against corrupted
frames and fragments, and the Spanning Tree Protocol.
