Cisco ME 3400 Ethernet Access Switch Software Configuration Guide
OL-9639-06
Chapter 1 Overview
Default Settings After Initial Switch Configuration
• Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) and Remote SPAN (RSPAN) for traffic monitoring on any port or
VLAN
• SPAN and RSPAN support of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to monitor, repel, and report
network security violations
• Four groups (history, statistics, alarms, and events) of embedded RMON agents for network
monitoring and traffic analysis
• Syslog facility for logging system messages about authentication or authorization errors, resource
issues, and time-out events
• Layer 2 traceroute to identify the physical path that a packet takes from a source device to a
destination device
• Time Domain Reflector (TDR) to diagnose and resolve cabling problems on copper Ethernet 10/100
ports
• SFP module diagnostic management interface to monitor physical or operational status of an SFP
module
• Enhanced object tracking for HSRP clients (requires metro IP access image)
• IP Service Level Agreements (IP SLAs) support to measure network performance by using active
traffic monitoring (requires metro IP access or metro access image)
• IP SLAs EOT to use the output from IP SLAs tracking operations triggered by an action such as
latency, jitter, or packet loss for a standby router failover takeover (requires metro IP access or metro
access image)
• EOT and IP SLAs EOT static route support to identify when a preconfigured static route or a DHCP
route goes down (requires metro IP access or metro access image)
• IP SLAs for Metro Ethernet using IEEE 802.1ag Ethernet Operation, Administration, and
Maintenance (OAM) capability to validate connectivity, jitter, and latency in a metro Ethernet
network (requires metro IP access or metro access image)
• Embedded event manager (EEM) for device and system management to monitor key system events
and then act on them though a policy (requires metro IP access or metro access image)
Default Settings After Initial Switch Configuration
The switch is designed for plug-and-play operation; you only need to assign basic IP information to the
switch and connect it to the other devices in your network. If you have specific network needs, you can
change the interface-specific and system-wide settings.
Note For information about assigning an IP address by using the CLI-based setup program, see the hardware
installation guide.
If you do not configure the switch at all, the Cisco ME 3400switch operates with the default settings
shown in
Table 1-1.
