Configuration options with a SCALANCE X-300/X-400

Ethernet port
The IE switches can be configured over the switch ports (in-band ports) if an IP address has
already been assigned (see section "Assignment of an IP address").
Over the Ethernet interface, you can use the following protocols or services:
● Web Based Management (HTTP- and HTTPS-based)
● TELNET
● SSH
● SNMP
● Traps
● FTP
● TFTP
● E-mail
● Syslog
Note
With the SCALANCE X414-3E, there is also a Fast Ethernet interface available (out-band
port) on the CPU module.
RS-232 interface
The IE switches X-400/XR-300 have an RS-232 interface. You can connect a PC or PG to
this port with a null modem cable and a terminal program (for example HyperTerminal in
Windows, See also Appendix A). You use this port for the manual assignment of an IP
address for the out-band port (SCALANCE X414-3E only) or the in-band port (refer to the
Section "Assignment of an IP address over the serial port"). The entire set of CLI commands
is also available.
Note
Access to the IE switch management over the serial port or the Ethernet port of the CPU
module is also possible when the network is disrupted (out-of-band management).
