SNMP Management

There are two main views in the CLI:
User View
■
This view is shown when you first connect to the Switch and shows
basic information about operation and statistics. The prompt for user
view is <S4200G>.
System View
■
This view enables you to configure the system parameters. To display
this view, from user view enter system-view. The prompt for system
view is [S4200G].
The Switch 4200G supports Secure Shell version 1.5 (SSHv1.5), allowing
secure access to the Command Line Interface of the Switch.
If you use SSH to administer your Switch and the network traffic is
intercepted, no passwords or configuration information will be visible in
the data. To securely administer the Switch using the Command Line
Interface you need a third party SSH client.
Each Switch has an internal set of web pages that allow you to manage
the Switch using a Web browser remotely over an IP network (see
Figure 9).
Figure 9 Web Interface Management over the Network
Workstation
Refer to "Setting Up Web Interface Management" on page 48.
You can manage a Switch using any network management workstation
running the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) as shown in
Figure 10. For example, you can use the 3Com Network Director
software, available from the 3Com website.
