Overview
The switches covered by this guide have several built-in tools for monitoring,
analyzing, and troubleshooting switch and network operation:
■ Status: Includes options for displaying general switch information, man­
agement address data, port status, port and trunk group statistics, MAC
addresses detected on each port or VLAN, and STP, IGMP, and VLAN data
(page B-4).
Counters: Display details of traffic volume on individual ports (page
■
B-10).
■ Event Log: Lists switch operating events ("Using the Event Log To
Identify Problem Sources" on page C-26).
Alert Log: Lists network occurrences detected by the switch—in the
■
Status | Overview screen of the web browser interface (page 5-16).
■ Configurable trap receivers: Uses SNMP to enable management sta­
tions on your network to receive SNMP traps from the switch. (Refer to
"SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c Trap Features" on page 15-18.)
■ Port monitoring (mirroring): Copy all traffic from the specified ports
to a designated monitoring port (page B-23).
Link test and ping test—analysis tools in troubleshooting situations—are
described in appendix C, "Troubleshooting". See "Diagnostic Tools" on page
C-44.
