How You Can Manage the Dual Speed Hub 500
The management module includes two complete management
interfaces for the Dual Speed Hub 500, that you can access locally
(through the console port on the Dual Speed Hub 500) or remotely
(over the network):
Command line interface — can be used to set up network
address information for the hub or stack.
Web interface — provides easy 'point and click' graphical
management of the hub or stack from any suitable Web browser.
Command Line Interface
The command line interface is a simple text-based user interface
which allows you to configure some of the network information for
the hub or stack. The command line interface provides a subset of
the web interface's functionality but is intended as a quick setup tool,
to get your hub ready for management over the network. You can
use a terminal or terminal emulator to access the command line
interface using a direct connection or across the network using Telnet
(with IP configured).
For information on making a management connection to the
command line interface, refer to
page
Web Interface
The web interface provides easy management of the hub or stack.
It behaves in a similar way to a Web site on the World Wide Web,
and you access it using a Web browser. The web interface is
protected by a password panel, which prevents unauthorized access.
You use the different pages of the web interface to change the
network information in you hub or stack, and perform different
management tasks.

interface, refer to
