Ethernet Port
The Ethernet port is an RJ-45 connector that provides a connection to a
management workstation through a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet cable as shown in
Figure 2-5. A management workstation can be a Windows
®
, Solaris™, or a Linux
®
workstation that is used to configure and manage the switch fabric. You can
manage the switch over an Ethernet connection using the CLI, QuickTools, or
SNMP.
The Ethernet port has two LEDs: the Link Status LED (green) and the Activity LED
(green). The Link Status LED illuminates continuously when an Ethernet
connection has been established. The Activity LED illuminates when data is being
transmitted or received over the Ethernet connection.
