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 address for the switch, you can access the Industrial Managed Switch's Web interface applications directly in your
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 parameters from one central location, just as if you were directly
connected to the Industrial Managed Switch's console port.
Web Management requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later, Safari or Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later.

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 Net-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.
