In-Band Access

You can access the management agent in the switch from anywhere within the
attached network using Telnet, a Web browser, or other network management
software tools. However, you must first configure the switch with a valid IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway. If you have trouble establishing a link to the
management agent, check to see if you have a valid network connection. Then
verify that you entered the correct IP address. Also, be sure the port through which
you are connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled,
then check the network cabling that runs between your remote location and the
switch.
Caution: The management agent can accept up to four simultaneous Telnet sessions. If
the maximum number of sessions already exists, an additional Telnet
connection will not be able to log into the system.
