Enable Sim - D-Link DES-3010F Command Line Interface Reference Manual

After configuring one switch to operate as the CS of a SIM group, additional switches may join the group by manually
configuring the Switch to be a MS. The CS will then serve as the in band entry point for access to the MS. The CS's IP address
will become the path to all MS's of the group and the CS's Administrator's password, and/or authentication will control access
to all MS's of the SIM group.
With SIM enabled, the applications in the CS will redirect the packet instead of executing the packets. The applications will
decode the packet from the administrator, modify some data, then send it to the MS. After execution, the CS may receive a
response packet from the MS, which it will encode and send it back to the administrator.
When a CaS becomes a MS, it automatically becomes a member of the first SNMP community (include read/write and read
only) to which the CS belongs. However if a MS has its own IP address, it can belong to SNMP communities to which other
switches in the group, including the CS, do not belong.
To join an SIM group, first enable the Switch for SIM using the enable sim command. Once enabled the switch is ready to join
an SIM group yet to be a part of that group, the commander switch must be configured to accept the DES-3026 as a member
switch. For more information on adding the DES-3026 as a member of an SIM group, please see the commander switch's user
guide or command line interface reference manual.
