Chapter 1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Asanté IntraCore 65120 Series Gigabit Ethernet switch. In addition to the
traditional console and telnet interface, this switch can also be configured and managed through a user-
friendly web browser interface. With an on-board HTTP server, users can access the box with the use of
popular browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft I.E (Netscape Navigator 4.0 and IE 4.01 or
higher required). The IntraCore 65120 also supports firmware updates using the TFTP protocol.
This manual is designed for System Administrators, Information Technologies Professionals, and other
users who are familiar with the setup and operation of managed networks. This chapter describes the
functional overview of the Gigabit Ethernet switch:
