1.6 LOCAL CONSOLE MANAGER

The Local Console Manager (LCM) is a command-line interface
built into the SmartSTACK 100 ELS100-16TX. The LCM enables
you to monitor, manage, and configure the SmartSTACK 100
ELS100-16TX through the out-of-band RS232C connection attached
to any non-intelligent terminal or workstation running terminal
emulation.
You can also use a Cabletron Systems Network Management
System, or a standard SNMP-based Network Management System,
to manage the SmartSTACK 100 ELS100-16TX. For a list of
available SmartSTACK 100 ELS100-16TX network management
tools, see Section 4.1, ELS100-16TX Management Tools.
