Network Management Agent
The TigerSwitch 1000 includes a built-in network management
agent. The agent offers a variety of management options, including
SNMP, RMON and a Web-based interface. The switch also provides
a serial port on the rear panel for out-of-band management. This is
an RS-232 serial port with a DB-9 connector. A PC may be
connected to this port for configuration and monitoring purposes
out-of band via a full-handshaking null-modem cable. (See
Appendix B for a description of wiring options.)
The network management agent provides a wide range of advanced
performance-enhancing features. Port-based and tagged VLANs provide
traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. QoS priority
queueing ensures the minimum delay for moving real-time multi-media
data across the network. Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to
bottlenecks caused by port saturation. And broadcast storm suppression
prevents broadcast traffic storms from engulfing the network. Some of the
management features are described below. For a detailed description,
refer to the Management Guide that is included with the switch.
