Cajun P120 User’s Guide

Switch Management

You can configure and manage the Cajun P120 using either the Standalone
Cajun P120 Manager supplied (see the Cajun P120 Standalone Manager User Guide),
CajunView, or the text-based Terminal Emulation (see the ”Terminal Emulation”
chapter). Access to Terminal Emulation is via either a serial connection or Telnet.

SNMP Agent

The Cajun P120 is managed through SNMP, either in-band (by connecting the
manager to any LAN port) or out-of-band using the SLIP port.

The Cajun P120 supports two types of MIBs (Management Information Bases):
proprietary MIBs and standard MIBs.

Cajun P120 Software

The Cajun P120 software is firmware running on the Cajun P120 supervisor
engine. The software provides support for the switch modules and their features.
You may occasionally need to update the software to a newer version to support
new hardware expansion modules or increase functionality. Download is available
from the Download Manager (part of the Cajun P120 Standalone Manager) or by
using the TFTP process for updating the software - both are described in Appendix
B, “Software Download”.

Under normal conditions, the Cajun P120 boots up from its Cajun P120 switching
software. However, should that software become damaged, the Cajun P120 may
bootup from a basic version of the software which is stored in a separate secured
bank.

Configuration Upload/Download

This function provides ease of configuration. The user can download a
configuration file to all switches or simply copy the configuration of one switch to
another.

Loading the configuration file is achieved either via Cajun Campus CLI, Legacy CLI
or via the Update Master.
