Configuring the GbE Interconnect Switch using the Menu-driven Interface
Monitoring VLAN Status
To view the VLAN Status table:
1. Highlight VLAN Status on the Network Monitoring Menu.
2. Press the Enter key. The following screen is displayed.
The VLAN Status window displays which VLAN ports are egress and which ports are
untagged.
Configuring SNMP/RMON Manager
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an Open Systems Interconnection (OSI)
Layer 7 (the application layer) protocol for remotely monitoring and configuring network
devices. SNMP enables network management stations to read and modify the settings of
gateways, routers, switches, and other network devices. SNMP can be used to perform many
of the same functions as a directly connected console, or can be used within an integrated
network management software package such as Insight Manager 7.
SNMP performs the following functions:
•
•
•
Sends and receives SNMP packets through the IP protocol
Collects information about the status and current configuration of network devices
Modifies the configuration of network devices
The GbE Interconnect Switch has software, called an agent, that processes SNMP requests.
The user program that makes the requests and collects the responses runs on the management
station (a designated computer on the network). The SNMP agent and the user program both
use the UDP/IP protocol to exchange packets.
