Catalyst 3560 Switch Software Configuration Guide
1-4
CMS—CMS is a GUI that can be launched from anywhere in your network through a web browser
such as Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. CMS is already installed on the
switch. For more information about CMS, see
CLI—The Cisco IOS CLI software is enhanced to support desktop- and multilayer-switching
features. You can access the CLI either by connecting your management station directly to the
switch console port or by using Telnet from a remote management station. For more information
about the CLI, see Chapter 2, "Using the Command-Line Interface."
SNMP—SNMP management applications such as CiscoWorks2000 LAN Management Suite (LMS)
and HP OpenView. You can manage from an SNMP-compatible management station that is running
platforms such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager. The switch supports a comprehensive set of
MIB extensions and four remote monitoring (RMON) groups. For more information about using
SNMP, see Chapter 26, "Configuring SNMP."
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for automating configuration of switch information
(such as IP address, default gateway, host name, and Domain Name System [DNS] and Trivial File
Transfer Protocol (TFTP) server names)
DHCP relay for forwarding User Datagram Protocol (UDP) broadcasts, including IP address
requests, from DHCP clients
DHCP server for automatic assignment of IP addresses and other DHCP options to IP hosts
Directed unicast requests to a DNS server for identifying a switch through its IP address and its
corresponding host name and to a TFTP server for administering software upgrades from a TFTP
server
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) for identifying a switch through its IP address and its
corresponding Media Access Control (MAC) address
Unicast MAC address filtering to drop packets with specific source or destination MAC addresses
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) versions 1 and 2 for network topology discovery and mapping
between the switch and other Cisco devices on the network
Network Time Protocol (NTP) for providing a consistent time stamp to all switches from an external
source
Cisco IOS File System (IFS) for providing a single interface to all file systems that the switch uses
In-band management access through CMS over a Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet
Explorer browser session
In-band management access for up to 16 simultaneous Telnet connections for multiple CLI-based
sessions over the network
In-band management access for up to five simultaneous, encrypted Secure Shell (SSH) connections
for multiple CLI-based sessions over the network (requires the cryptographic [that is, supports
encryption] versions of the SMI and EMI)
