Using the BayStack Model 350T 10/100 Autosense Switch
Flash Memory Storage
The BayStack 350T switch uses flash memory to store the switch software image.
Flash memory allows you to update the software image with a newer version
without changing the switch hardware. An in-band connection between the switch
and the TFTP load host is required to download the software image (refer to
"Software
terminal for this procedure, refer to
If the BayStack 350T switch detects a corrupted software image during self-test, it
automatically downloads a new software image, using the Bootstrap (BootP) and
TFTP protocols.
BootP Automatic IP Configuration Capability
The BayStack 350T switch has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or MAC
address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. This is the MAC address you
use when you configure your network BootP server to recognize the BayStack
350T switch BootP requests. A properly configured BootP server allows the
switch to automatically learn its assigned IP address, its subnet mask, the IP
address of the default router (default gateway), and the software image file name.
Refer to
BootP configuration file.
SNMP MIBs Support
The BayStack 350T switch supports an SNMP agent with private MIB extensions.
Built-in SNMP agent support ensures compatibility with existing network
management tools. The BayStack 350T switch supports MIB-II (RFC 1213)
standards that provide access to detailed management statistics. With SNMP
management, you can configure SNMP traps to be generated automatically for
conditions such as an unauthorized access attempt or changes in operating status
on individual ports.
