This chapter introduces you to how your LANplex® system is managed and
administered.
The LANplex 2500 system combines high port density, Ethernet switching,
Ethernet-to-FDDI bridging, Fast Ethernet switching, FDDI switching, and
ATM switching in an integrated system. You can configure much of this
functionality to meet your specific networking needs.
LANplex system management and administration occur through the layers
of the OSI reference model. See Figure 1-1.
