Management
Through the switchs built-in management you can configure the device and
monitor network health. You can use any combination of the following
methods to manage the switch.
SNMP management applications like Intel Device View, LANDesk
®
Network Manager, HP OpenView*, and IBM Tivoli NetView* are
tailored for Intel products and show a graphical representation of the
device.
Onboard management allows control over the switch without using an
SNMP application. The Web Device Manager provides a graphical
interface while Local Management is a menu-driven interface.
Other SNMP-compliant applications can manage the switches if you
compile the switchs MIB files into that application.
