41

3.2 Management Access Overview

The Industrial Managed Switch allows you to access and manage it by using any or all of the following methods:

 An administration console
 Web browser interface
 An external SNMP-based network management application

The administration console and Web browser interface are embedded in the Industrial Managed Switch software and also
available for immediate use. Each of these management methods have their own advantag es. Table 3-1 compares the three
management methods.

Method Advantages Disadvantages

Console

• Modem connection may prove to be unreliable

or slow

• Security can be compromised (hackers need
only know the IP address and subnet mask)

• May encounter lag times on poor connections

• Requires SNMP manager software

• Least visually appealing of all three methods

• Some settings require calculations

• Security can be compromised (hackers need

only know the community name)

3.3 Administration Console

The administration console is an interna l, chara cter -oriented, and command line user interface for performing system
administration such as d isplayi ng sta tist ics or changin g option settings . You can view the administration con sole from a terminal,
personal computer, Apple Macintosh, or workstation connected to the switch's console (serial) port.
There are two ways to use this management methods: (1) Drect access or (2) Modem port access. The following sections will
describe more information about using the console, refer to Chapter 5 Command Line Interface Console Management.

Figure 3-1 Console management

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 Industrial Managed Switch console (serial) port.
When using this management method, a straight DB9 RS-232 cable is required to connect the switch to the PC. After making
this connection, configure the termin al-emulation program to use the following parameters:
The default parameters are:

 9600 bps
 8 data bits
 No parity
 1 stop bit

User’s Manual of IGSW-2840

43

Figure 3-2 Terminal parameter settings

You can change these settings, if desired, after you log on. 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 progra m for connect ing to th e ter minal serial port . A workstation attachment und er UNIX can u se an em ulato r
such as TIP.

3.4 Web Management

The Industrial Managed Switch provides a browser interface that lets you configure and manage the switch remotely. After you
set up your IP ad dress f or th e sw itch, you can ac cess t he Industrial Managed S witch' s Web inter face appli cations directly in y our
Web browser by entering the IP address of the Industrial Managed Switch. You can then use your Web browser to list and
manage the Industrial Managed Switch configuration paramet ers from one cen tral loc ation, just as if you were directly
connected to the Industrial Managed Switch's console port .
Web Management requires either Microsof t Int ernet Explor er 6.0 or later, Safari or Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later.

Figure 3-3 Web management

3.5 SNMP-Based Network Management

You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Industrial Managed Switch, such as SNMPc
Network Manager, HP Openview Network Node Management (NNM) or What’s Up Gold. 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 N et-work 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 gets and sets community strings for the Industrial Managed
Switch are public.

3.6 Protocols

The Industrial Managed Switch supports the following protocols:

 Virtual terminal protocols, such as Telnet
 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)

3.6.1 Virtual Te r minal Protoc ol s

A virtual terminal protocol is a software program, such as Telnet, that allows you to establish a management session from a
Macintosh, a PC, or a UN IX workst ati on. Beca use Telnet runs over TC P/IP, you must have at lea st one I P addr ess conf igur ed on
the Industrial Managed Switch before you can establish access to it with a virtual terminal protocol.

Terminal emulation differs from a v irt ual terminal protocol in that you must connec
to the console (serial) port.

3.6.2 SNMP Protocol

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the standard management protocol for multi-vendor IP networks. SNMP
supports t ransaction-based queries that allow the protocol to format messages and to transmit information between reporting
devices and data-collection pr ograms. S NM P runs on top of the User Dat agra m Proto col (UD P), of fer ing a con nection less-mode
service.

3.6.3 Management Archit ecture

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 (console port, for example) are
immediately displayable by the other management methods (for example, SNMP agent of Web browser).
The management architecture of the switch adheres to the IEEE open standard. This compliance assures customers that the
Industrial Managed Switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other solutions that adhere to the same open standard.

4. WEB CONFIGURATION

This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management.

About Web-based Management

The Industrial Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Industrial Managed Switch from
anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.

The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 6.0 or later version. It is based on Java Applets with an aim to reduce
network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing screen.

By default, IE6.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. User has to modify
the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use network ports.

The Industrial Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager PC must be set on
same the IP subnet address with the Industrial Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the IGSW-2840 Industrial Managed Switch is 192.168.0.100, then the manager PC

should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x is a range of the nu mber betw een 1 and 254, ex cept 100), a nd the defa ult s ubnet m ask i s

255.255.255.0.

If you have changed the default IP address of the Industrial Managed Switch to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0
via console, then the manager PC shoul d be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a range o f the number between 2 and 25 4) to do the
relative configuration on manager PC.

4.2.4 IP Configuration

This section describes how to configure an IP interface for management access over the network. The IP address for the stack
is obtained vi a DH CP by default. To configure an a ddress manually, you need to change the Industrial Managed Switch’s default
settings to values that are compatible with your network. You may also need to an establish a default gateway between the
stack and management stations that exist on another network segment.

You can configure a specific IP address manually, or direct the device to obtain an address from a BOOTP or DHCP server.
Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.

Figure 4-2-4 IP Configuratio n scre ens hot

Object Description

• Management VLAN

• IP Address Mode

ID of the configured VLAN (1-4094). This is the only VLAN through which you
can manage the Industrial Managed Switch.
By default, all ports on the Industrial Managed Switch are members of VLAN 1.
However, the management station can be attached to a port belonging to any
VLAN, as long as that VLAN has been assigned an IP address.
Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via :

 Static - manual configuration
 DHCP - Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
 BOOTP - Boot Protocol

If DHCP/BOOTP is enabled, IP will not function until a reply has been received
from the server. Requests will be broadcast periodically by the switch for an IP
address. (DHCP/BOOTP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway.)

4.2.8 Log

The switch allows you to co ntrol the logging of error me ssag es, including the type of events that are recorded i n sw itch m emory,
logging to a remote System Log (syslog) server, and displays a list of recent event messages. This section h as the following
options:

■ System Logs Sends error messages to a logging process

■ Remote Logs Configures the logging of messages to a remote logging process

■ SMTP Sends an SMTP client message to a participating server.

■ Logs Stores and displays error messages

4.2.8.1 System Log Configuration

The system can be configured to send debug and error messages to a logging process. This logging process controls the type
of error messages that are stored in switch memory or sent to a remote syslog serv er.

The system allows you to enable or disable event logging, and specify which levels are logged to RAM or flash memory.

Severe error messages that are logged to flash memory are permanently stored in the switch to assist in troubleshooting
network problems. Up to 4096 log entries can be stored in the flash memory, with the oldest entries being overwritten first when
the available log memory (256 kilobytes) has been exceeded.

The System Logs p age a llows you to configure a nd li mit sy st em me ssa ges th at are logged to flash or R AM memory. The default
is for event levels 0 to 3 to be logged to flash and levels 0 to 6 to be logged to RAM.

The following table lists the event levels of the Industrial Managed Switch:

Level Severity Name Description

7 Debug Debugging messages
6 Informational Informational messages only
5 Notice Normal but significant condition, such as cold start
4 Warning Warning conditions (e.g., return false, unexpected return)
3 Error Error conditions (e.g., invalid input, default used)
2 Critical Critical conditions (e.g., memory allocation, or free memory

error - resource exhausted)
1 Alert Immediate action needed
0 Emergency System unusable
