SMC Networks SMC6608M Switch User Manual


 
Configuration Options
Basic port communication modes can be configured manually
through the use of the front-panel Configure button. For more
advanced management capability, the TigerSwitch 100 provides
a menu-driven System Configuration Program which can be
accessed through the Console Interface (out-of-band) or by a
Telnet connection (in-band) over the network.
The TigerSwitch 100 also comes with an on-board management
software module based on SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol). This SNMP agent permits the switch to be managed
from any PC in the network using optional in-band management
software (i.e., SMC’s EliteView).
The System Configuration Program and the SNMP agent support
management functions such as:
Enabling/Disabling of any port
Communication Mode Configuration (Full-, Half-duplex or
Auto-Negotiation)
Switching Mode Configuration (adaptive cut-through, cut-
through, fragment-free or store-and-forward)
SNMP Parameter Configuration
Virtual LAN (VLAN) Port Grouping Configuration
Enabling/Disabling and Configuration of the Spanning Tree
Algorithm
System Restart
