Changes to Local Management Screens

1.2 ACCESSING LOCAL MANAGEMENT

Access to Local Management is controlled through the Password screen.

1.2.1 Navigating Local Management Screens

The Local Management application consists of a series of menu screens. Navigate through Local Management by selecting items from the menu screens.
The SmartSwitch supports two modes of switch operation. The switching modes are as follows:
802.1D Switching (traditional switching)
802.1Q Switching (802.1Q port based VLANs)
SecureFast VLAN (Cabletron Systems SecureFast switching). A separate image is required for this operation.
NOTE
Refer to the Release Notes shipped with the product to verify which screens are supported in each of the available switching modes.
Depending on the Operational Mode set for the device, the hierarchy of the Local Management screens differs as shown in Figure 1-1 and
Figure 1-2. Refer to the appropriate figure that relates to the Operational
Mode set for the device to see the applicable Local Management screen hierarchy.
NOTE
The areas that changed in the hierarchy are highlighted as shown in Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2. The screens involved are covered in this document.

FLASH Download Configuration Screen
The following briefly defines each field of the Flash Download Configuration screen:
Download Method (Selectable)
This field steps between TFTP, RUNTIME and BOOTP. If set for BOOTP, the device sends out a BootP request to determine the IP address of the TFTP server and the filename of the image to be downloaded. If set for TFTP or RUNTIME, the SmartSwitch device attempts a TFTP download based on the IP address and filename entered in the fields at the bottom of the Flash Download Configuration screen.
Section 1.5.1 describes how to download using TFTP. Section 1.5.2
describes how to download using RUNTIME. Section 1.5.3 describes how to download using BootP.
Reboot After Download (Modifiable when user chooses RUNTIME)
This field notifies the user that the SmartSwitch device will reboot after the download is complete. If a RUNTIME Download is performed, this field toggles between YES and NO. If YES is selected, the device reboots after the download is completed. If NO is selected, the device will continue using the existing firmware image. The device stores the new firmware image in FLASH memory. When the device is reset, the device will boot from FLASH memory using the new image.
TFTP Gateway IP Addr (Selectable)
This field shows the IP address of the TFTP gate w ay serv er defined in the General Configuration screen.
Last Image Server IP (Read-only)
This field shows the IP address of the server used for the pre vious FLASH Download.
