You can manage the switch locally or remotely. Local management is
conducted through the Console port on the switch. Remote management
is possible with a variety of management tools from workstations on your
network.
The switch has a Console port for local management of the unit. Local
management sessions, which must be performed at the unit, hence the
name "local," are commonly referred to as out-of-band management
because they are not conducted over your network.
The requirements for local management sessions are a terminal or a PC
with a terminal emulator program and the RS-232 console management
cable that comes with the switch. For modern PCs without a serial port, a
USB-to-serial adapter and driver software is required.
Note
The initial management session of the switch must be from a local
management session.
You can manage the switch remotely with the following software tools:
 Telnet client
 Secure Shell client
 Secure (HTTPS) or non-secure (HTTP) web browser

SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, or SNMPv3 application
Management sessions performed with these tools are referred to as in-
band management because the sessions are conducted over your
network. Remote management sessions are generally more convenient
than local management session because they can be performed from any
workstation that has one of these software tools.
