Management
In-band network management allows you to manage, control,
and monitor the IntraSwitch and any installed expansion
modules over the Ethernet network.
You can perform these functions by accessing the IntraSwitch
via any of the following methods:
❏ By connecting with a Telnet program and using
the Local Management Interface.
❏ By connecting with any common 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 via in-band management:
1
Make sure the network to which the IntraSwitch
is connected is functioning.
2
Make sure the IntraSwitch is configured with
valid IP information.
See “Configuring for Management” on page 2-8.
3
Connect to the IntraSwitch via Telnet, with a
Web browser, or with any SNMP-based network
management application.
Telnet
See Chapter 5, Console Management, for infor-
mation on managing the IntraSwitch.
∆ Note: Almost all management screens using
a Telnet are identical to those of the out-of-
band Console interface.
Web Browser
Refer to Chapter 8, Web Browser Management
Manual, for information on managing the
IntraSwitch with a Web browser.
