1.3 Management Methods
The switch supports the following management methods:
• Local console management
• Telnet management
• Web configurator
• SNMP network management
1.3.1 Console and Telnet Management
Managing the switch through the console port requires a direct connection between the
computer and the switch using an RS-232 console cable. You can also telnet into the
switch from any computer on your network (provided you know the IP address of the
switch).
1.3.2 Web Configurator
The switch comes with an embedded HTML web configurator. It offers advanced
management features and allows you to manage the switch from anywhere on the network
through Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.0 or later).
1.4 Applications
The switch is ideally suited as a workgroup switch or a bridge for large network
segmentation.
For ES-2008 models that come with a fiber port, you can also use the fiber port to connect
to other network switches. The distance between two switches via fiber cable can be up to
2 Km (multi-mode) or 30 Km (single-mode).
