Remote Management
Remote management through the Web-based management software or Telnet is enabled by default.
Once you have the IP settings of the Switch configured you can use either of these methods to
manage the Switch. In-band management can be done remotely through the network using Telnet the
web-based management. You may also use a Telnet or web interface for out-of-band management by
connecting directly to the Switch's dedicated Management port (labeled Mgmt) on the Primary Master
CPU module. The Mgmt port is an RJ-45 connection with auto-polarity detection so you can use
standard Ethernet cable to connect it to the Ethernet port on a desktop PC or notebook computer.
Telnet uses the same CLI commands you would use for the console connection. See the CLI
Reference Guide for a complete list of commands. The following chapter describes how to access the
Web-based management interface.
