1. MANAGEMENT OVERVIEW

Configuration Options

For advanced management capability, the VH-SMGMT2 Vertical Horizon
Management Module provides a menu-driven system configuration
program. This program can be accessed by a direct connection to the
serial port on the Management Module (out-of-band), or by a Telnet
connection over the network (in-band).
The Management Module is based on SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol). This SNMP agent permits a switch stack to be
managed from any PC in the network using in-band management
software.
The Management Module also includes an embedded HTTP Web agent.
This Web agent can be accessed using a standard Web browser from any
computer attached to the network. Refer to the Web Management Guide
for more information.
The system configuration program and the SNMP agent support
management functions such as:
•

•

Select RMON options
•
