Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the tasks that may be accomplished using Local Management 
(LM), and an introduction to LM screen navigation, in-band and out-of-band network 
management, screen elements, and LM keyboard conventions. 
1.1
OVERVIEW
The module provides a menu-driven system configuration program referred to as Local 
Management. This program can be accessed by a direct or modem connection to the COM port on 
the module (out-of-band), or by a Telnet connection over the network (in-band).
The Local Management is based on SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This SNMP 
agent permits a switch to be managed from any PC in the network using in-band management 
software. 
The module also includes an embedded HTTP Web agent. This Web agent can be accessed using a 
standard Web browser from any computer attached to the network.
The system configuration program and the SNMP agent support management functions such as:
Enable/disable any port
Set the communication mode for any port
Configure SNMP parameters
Select RMON options
Display system information or statistics
Configure the module to join a Spanning Tree
Important Notice
Depending on the firmware version used in the module, some features described in this document 
may not be supported. Refer to the Release Notes shipped with the module to determine which 
features are supported.
