The 2E4X-27 Local Management application consists of a series of menu
screens. Navigate through Local Management by selecting items from the
menu screens.
The 2E4X-27 support three modes of switch operation. The switching
modes are as follows:

• 802.1Q Switching (port based switching)
• SecureFast VLAN (Cabletron Systems SecureFast switching
Depending on the Operational Mode set for the device, the hierarchy of
the Local Management screens differs as shown in Figure 5-4, Figure 5-5
and Figure 5-6. Refer to the appropriate figure that relates to the
Operational Mode set for the device to see the applicable Local
Management screen hierarchy.
NOTE
The User’s password is one of the community names specified
in the SNMP Community Names screen. Access to certain
Local Management capabilities depends on the degree of
access accorded that community name. Refer to Section 5.8.
If an invalid password is entered, the terminal beeps and the
cursor returns to the beginning of the password entry field.
Entering a valid password causes the associated access level
to display at the bottom of the screen and the Device Menu
screen to appear.
If no activity occurs for several minutes, the Password screen
redisplays and the password has to be reentered.
NOTE
Refer to the Release Notes shipped with the product to verify
which screens are supported in each of the three available
switching modes.
