Scriptable command line interface 
The CLI provides the added benefits of scripting, a set-up utility and other enhanced switch 
management tasks, an out-of-band connection, and more. The main menu opens after a successful log-
in (Figure 9). This interface may be accessed locally via the front panel RS-232 console port on each 
interconnect switch or remotely using a console Telnet session via any interconnect switch external 
Ethernet port.

Simple network management protocol  
The GbE2 interconnect switch supports industry-standard SNMP management information bases 
(MIBs), HP enterprise switch MIBs, and environmental traps. The SNMP agents are pre-installed in the 
interconnect switch firmware. Redundant community strings and SNMP trap manager hosts can be 
configured per switch 
This capability allows the interconnect switch to be monitored remotely from an SNMP network 
management station such as 
 or 
 The interconnect switch may also 
be configured through the HP OpenView Network Node Manager. The unique interconnect switch 
integration with Insight Manager 7 provides the following additional features: 
 
A script utility to simplify registering (compiling) the GbE2 Interconnect Switch MIBs. 
 
Automatic discovery and identification of the interconnect switches upon registration of MIBs. 
 
Automatic receiving of traps and events from the interconnect switches upon registration of MIBs.

Interconnect Switches is planned for 4Q2003). 
Switch security 
Several features are provided on the GbE Interconnect switch to allow the switch administrator to 
secure the management interfaces. These features include the ability to: 
 
Configure multiple password protected accounts with various levels of access.
