Connectivity
Connectivity
The 7H4202‐72 can support up to 72, 10BASE‐T/100BASE‐TX switched ports connected
through 72 fixed front panel connectors.
Management
Management of the module can be either in‐band or out‐of‐band. In‐band remote
management is possible using Telnet, Enterasys Networks' NetSight
application, or WebView™ application. Out‐of‐band management is provided through
the RJ45 COM (Communication) port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a
VT100 terminal emulator.
Switch Configuration Using WebView
Enterasys Networks' HTTP‐based Web management application (WebView) is an
intuitive web tool for simple management tasks.
Switch Configuration Using CLI Commands
The CLI commands enable you to perform more complete switch configuration
management tasks.
For CLI command set information and how to configure the module, refer to the Enterasys
Matrix™ DFE‐Platinum Series Configuration Guide.
Standards Compatibility
The DFE‐Platinum modules are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3‐2002, 802.3ae‐2002,
802.1D‐1998, and 802.1Q‐1998 standards. The DFE‐Platinum module provides IEEE
802.1D‐1998 Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability of
the network and protect against "loop" conditions.
LANVIEW Diagnostic LEDs
LANVIEW diagnostic LEDs serve as an important troubleshooting aid by providing an
easy way to observe the status of individual ports and overall network operations.
