(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 switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other solutions that
adhere to the same open standard.
