Overview
The Compaq HB1004 10Base-T Ethernet Hub is a stand-alone, intelligent, 4
port hub. If offers an SNMP V1-compliant firmware agent. The HB1004 can
be monitored and controlled through a network management station. In
addition, you can also cascade the hub to additional 10Mb/s hubs or
10/100Mb/s switches.
The hub supports both in-band and out-of-band management. For in-band
management you can use SNMP compliant network management software to
monitor and control the system. For out-of-band management, you can connect
the hub’s RS232 port to a PC running the Compaq HB1004 System
Configuration Program.
