Chapter 5: Local Management
Page 5-18 2H22-08R SmartSwitch 2208 User’s Guide
Screen Lockout Time (Modifiable)
Contains the maximum number of minutes that the Local Management
application displays a standalone device’s screen while awaiting input or
action from a user. For example, if the number 5 is entered in this field,
you have up to five minutes to respond to each of the specified standalone
device’s Local Management screens. In this example, after five minutes of
“idleness” (no input or action), the terminal “beeps” five times, the Local
Management application terminates the session, and the display returns to
the Password screen. To enter a new lockout time, refer to Section 5.7.8.
Device Uptime (Read-Only)
Displays the total time that the device has been operating.
Operational Mode (Modifiable)
This field allows the user to set the 2H22-08R to operate as a traditional
switch (802.1d SWITCHING option), an IEEE 802.1Q switch (802.1Q
SWITCHING option), or as a Cabletron Systems SecureFast switch
(SECURE FAST VLAN option).
In 802.1d SWITCHING mode, the six ports located on the front panel,
and each Fast Ethernet Interface Module are bridged to each other.
In 802.1Q SWITCHING mode, the 2H22-08R is able to increase
switching functionality by creating and maintaining IEEE port based
VLANs.
When the operational mode is set to SECURE FAST VLAN, the
2H22-08R interfaces act as SecureFast switches. With the Cabletron
Systems VLAN Manager software, the devices are able to increase their
switching functionality by creating and maintaining Virtual LANs
(VLANs).
For details on how to select the Operational Mode, refer to Section 5.7.9.
Com (Modifiable)
This field allows you to enable or disable the COM port. The selection
toggles between ENABLED and DISABLED. The default is ENABLED.
For details about setting up the COM port, refer to Section 5.7.10.
