Console and Telnet Management
Console Management is done through the RS-232 Console Port. Managing
the CWFE8TX8MS by this method requires a direct connection between PC
and the CWFE8TX8MS Switch. While Telnet management is done over the
network. Once the CWFE8TX8MS is on the network, you can use Telnet to
Log in and change the configuration.
Web-based Management
The switch provides an embedded HTML web site residing in flash memory. It
offers advanced management features and allows users to manage the
CWFE8TX8MS from anywhere on the network through a standard browser
such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
SNMP Network Management
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides a means to monitor
and control network devices, and to manage configurations, statistic
collection, performance, and security.
