Console Based Management
This chapter covers three types of management:
• Console Management (out-of-band)
• Telnet Management (in-band)
• D-View/ SNMP Management
Web management is covered in Chapter 6.
The DES-5200 can be managed in-band or out-of-band. In-band management
refers to managing the DES-5200 through Telnet, using one of the ports.
Out-of-band management means going through the RS-232 port.
The interface and options are the same with Console and Telnet Management.
The difference is the type of connection and the port that is used to manage the
DES-5200. Telnet is In-Band Management.
D-View is a proprietary SNMP management program. D-View module is
provided with the DES-5200. The DES-5200 supports other SNMP management
applications and uses standard MIB. Refer to appropriate documentation for
installing and using other SNMP application programs. The look and feel of D-
View is different from other management types. Refer to other documentation if
you are using other vendors’ SNMP applications.
All instructions given in this chapter assume that you are logged into the DES-
5200 and are at the appropriate panel for carrying them out.
