VII - Application Overview
Before using iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II in your network, decide the following:
Will iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II units be located at only one or at both ends of
the fiber?
How do you want to manage the iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II units?
Will you define VLAN IDs?
How many iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II units will you use?
Two for Host/Remote applications–allows IP-less management providing
greater security (only with an SNMP management module)
One for a single unit application–requires an assigned IP address for
management
How do you want to manage iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II?
You can manage iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II through any of its three ports (and any
combination thereof) or from the chassis. Using only the EXT MGMT port or UMA
provides the highest level of security. If management must be through either the
DATA port or UPLINK port, then a unique VLAN tag is recommended to maintain
security.
