single interface module.
Assign IP addresses and subnet masks to the 6H12X-08.
Assign a default gateway.
Control access to the 6C105 chassis and the 6H12X-08 module by
establishing community names.

Designate which Network Management Workstations receive SNMP
traps from the 6H12X-08.
Configure and have access to any SNMP MIB objects the module
supports.
Monitor 6C105 chassis environmental information, which includes
power supply redundancy, power supply status, and fan tray status.
View RMON, switch and interface statistics.
Assign ports to operate in Auto-Negotiate (optional FE-100TX only),
standard or full duplex mode.
