Connection Establishment Using NMS

Introduction
You can also log in to a switch through a Network Management Station (NMS), and then configure and
manage the switch through the agent software on the switch. Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) is applied between the NMS and the agent. Refer to the SNMP-RMON part for related
information.
To log in to a switch through an NMS, you need to perform related configuration on both the NMS
and the switch.
