• UPnP. The SMC2586W-G responds to UPnP discovery messages so
that a Win-dows XP user can locate the SMC2586W-G in My Network
Places and use a Web browser to configure it.
• Telnet. The SMC2586W-G can be managed by Telnet.
• System log. For system operational status monitoring.
• Local log. System events are logged to the on-board RAM
of the SMC2586W-G and can be viewed using a Web browser.
• Remote log by SNMP trap. Systems events are sent in the
form of SNMP traps to a remote SNMP management server.
• Remote log by BSD Syslog. Systems events are sent in the
form of BSD Syslog (RFC3164) to a remote Syslog server.
•Power over Ethernet. Supplying power to an SMC2586W-G over an
Ethernet cable using optional SMCPWR-INJ3 Power Injector (IEEE 802.3af
compliant). This feature facilitates large-scale wireless LAN deployment.
•Hardware Watchdog Timer. If the firmware gets stuck in an invalid state,
the hardware watchdog timer will detect this situation and restart the
SMC2586W-G. This way, the SMC2586W-G can provide continuous services.
