switches. The Cajun P550/P880 Manager provides the following
benefits:

anywhere you can access an IP connection to your network.

Enhanced Learning Curve - The Cajun P550/P880
I
Manager uses screens from the Cajun Switch Web Agent,
facilitating the learning curve often involved in using
multiple applications to manage a switch network. Because
the software reuses screens from the Web Agent, you use
familiar screens to manage your switch network.
The Cajun P550/P880 Manager application allows you to view and
change configuration settings of the switch. The Cajun P550/P880
Manager provides a visual representation of the switch and a list of
the switch's modules and ports. Using these tools, you can set basic
switch information, assign ports to Virtual LANs (VLANs), and set
up hunt groups (also referred to as Link Aggregation Groups
(LAG)).
The Cajun P550/P880 Manager also provides IP Routing
capabilities using screens taken directly from the Cajun Switch
Web Agent.
You can select a switch port by selecting the ports shown in the
visual representation or by expanding the hierarchy of switch,
module, and port icons in the list. You can then select options from
the Tools menu to obtain information about the switch or to
configure device settings.
If SMON is installed, you can also launch the Device SMON
application from the Cajun P550/P880 Manager to view switch,
port, and VLAN statistics.
