The administration console and Web browser interface support are embedded in the Managed Switch software and are 

available for immediate use. Each of these management methods has their own advantages. Table 3-1 compares the three

•  Ideal for configuring the switch remotely

•  Compatible with all popular browsers 

•  Can be accessed from any location

only know the IP address and subnet mask) 

•  May encounter lag times on poor connections

• Communicates with switch functions at 

the MIB level 

•  Based on open standards

•  Security can be compromised (hackers need 

only know the community name)

• Text-based 

•  Telnet functionality and HyperTerminal 

built into Windows 

95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP operating 

systems
