Switch Management

This chapter explains the methods that you can use to configure management access to the switch. It describes the types of management applications and the communication and management protocols that deliver data between your management device (workstation or personal computer) and the system. It also contains information about port connection options.

This chapter covers the following topics:

• Management Access Overview

• Key Concepts

• Key Guidelines for Implementation

• Web Management Access

• Administration Console Access

• SNMP Access

• Standards, Protocols, and Related Reading

Management Access Overview

The switch gives you the flexibility to access and manage the switch using any or all of the following methods.

The web browser interface and administration console (CLI) support are embedded in the switch software and are available for immediate use.

18 User’s Manual

Modulized Managed Ethernet Switch

Administration Console (CLI)

The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, Command Line Interface (CLI) for performing system administration such as displaying statistics or changing option settings.

Using this method, you can view the administration console from a terminal, personal computer, Apple Macintosh, or workstation connected to the switch’s console port.

Direct Access

Direct access to the administration console is achieved by directly connecting a terminal or a PC equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the switch console port.

When using the management method, configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following parameters (you can change these settings after login):

[DEFAULT PARAMETERS]

 115,200bps  8 data bits  No parity  1 stop bit

This management method is often preferred because you can remain connected and monitor the system during system reboots. Also, certain error messages are sent to the serial port, regardless of the interface through which the associated action was initiated. A Macintosh or PC attachment can use any terminal-emulation program for connecting to the terminal serial port. A workstation attachment under UNIX can use an emulator such as TIP.

User’s Manual 19

Modulized Managed Ethernet Switch

Web Management

The switch provides a browser interface that lets you configure and manage the switch remotely.

After you set up your IP address for the switch, you can access the switch’s web interface applications directly in your web browser by entering the IP address of the switch. You can then use your web browser to list and manage switch configuration parameters from one central location, just as if you were directly connected to the switch’s console port.

SNMP-Based Network Management

You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the switch. This management method requires the SNMP agent on the switch and the SNMP Network Management Station to use the same community string. This management method, in fact, uses two community strings: the get community string and the set community string. If the SNMP Network management station only knows the set community string, it can read and write to the MIBs. However, if it only knows the get community string,

it can only read MIBs. The default get and set community

strings for the switch are public.

Protocols

The switch supports the following protocols:

VIRTUAL TERMINAL PROTOCOLS, SUCH AS TELNET

A virtual terminal protocol is a software pro you to establish a management session from a Macintosh, a PC, or a UNIX workstation. Because Telnet runs over TCP/IP, you must have at least one IP address configured on the switch before you can establish access to it with a virtual terminal protocol.

must connect a terminal directly to the console port.

d queries that allow the protocol to format

Management Architecture

All of the management application modules use the same Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI). By unifying management methods with a single MAPI, configuration parameters set using one method (e.g. console port) are immediately displayed the other management methods (e.g. SNMP agent of web browser).

The management architecture of the switch adheres to the IEEE open standard. This compliance assures customers that the switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other solutions that adhere to the same open standard.

User’s Manual 21

Modulized Managed Ethernet Switch

Web-Based Browser Management

The switch provides a web-based browser interface for configuring and managing the switch. This interface allows you to access the switch using a preferred web browser.

This chapter describes how to configure the switch using its web-based browser interface.

22 User’s Manual

Modulized Managed Ethernet Switch

SNMP & RMON Management

This chapter describes the switch’s Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and Remote Monitoring (RMON) capabilities.

Overview

RMON is an abbreviation for the Remote Monitoring MIB (Management Information Base). RMON is a system defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) document RFC 2819, which defines how networks can be monitored remotely.

RMONs typically consist of two components: an RMON probe and a management workstation:

- The RMON probe is an intelligent device or software agent that continually

collects statistics about a LAN segment or VLAN. The RMON probe transfers the collected data to a management workstation on request or when a pre-defined threshold is reached.

- The management workstation collects the statistics that the RMON probe

gathers. The workstation can reside on the same network as the probe, or it can have an in-band or out-of-band connection to the probe.

The switch provides RMON capabilities that allow network administrators to set parameters and view statistical counters defined in MIB-II, Bridge MIB, and RMON MIB. RMON activities are performed at a Network Management Station running an SNMP network management application with graphical user interface.

SNMP Agent and MIB-2 (RFC 1213)

The SNMP Agent running on the switch manager CPU is responsible for:

Modulized Managed Ethernet Switch

- Retrieving MIB counters from various layers of software modules according

to the SNMP GET/GET NEXT frame messages.

- Setting MIB variables according to the SNMP SET frame message.

- Generating an SNMP TRAP frame message to the Network Management

Station if the threshold of a certain MIB counter is reached or if ot conditions (such as the following) are met:

WARM START COLD START LINK UP LINK DOWN AUTHENTICATION FAILURE RISING ALARM FALLING ALARM TOPOLOGY ALARM

her trap

MIB-II defines a set of manageable objects in various layers of the TCP/IP protocol suites. MIB-II covers all manageable objects from layer 1 to layer 4, and, as a result, is the major SNMP MIB supported by all vendors in the networking industry. The switch supports a complete implementation of SNMP Agent and MIB-II.

RMON MIB (RFC 2819) and Bridge MIB (RFC

1493)

The switch provides hardware-based RMON counters in the switch chipset. The switch manager CPU polls these counters periodically to collect the statistics in a format that complies with the RMON MIB definition.

RMON Groups Supported

The switch supports the following RMON MIB groups defined in RFC 2819:

- RMON Statistics Group – maintains utilization an

- RMON Alarm Group – allows a network administrator to define alarm

thresholds for Threshold, High Threshold, or both. A trigger can trigger an alarm when the value of a specific MIB variable exceeds a threshold, falls below a threshold, or exceeds or falls below a threshold.

- RMON Event Group – allows a network administrator to define actions

Command Line Console Management

The switch provides a command line console interface for configuration purposes. The switch can be configured either locally through its RS-232 port or remotely via a Telnet session. For the later, you must specify an IP address for the switch first.

This chapter describes how to configure the switch using its console by Commend Line.

Administration Console

Connect the DB9 straight cable to the RS-232 serial port of the device to the RS-232 serial port of the terminal or computer running the terminal emulation application.

Direct access to the administration console is achieved by directly connecting a terminal or a PC equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the switch console port.

When using the management method, configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following parameters (you can change these settings after login):

[Default parameters] 115,200bps 8 data bits No parity 1 stop bit
