Out-of-Band

Management

Out-of-band network management allows you to configure,
manage, and monitor the IntraSwitch and any installed
expansion modules. You can perform these functions via the
following method:

By attaching a terminal (or a terminal emulator)
to the IntraSwitch’s Console port and using the
menu-driven

Local Management Interface

.

Out-of-band network management is guaranteed even when the
in-band Ethernet network is down.

To access the IntraSwitch Local Management Interface using
out-of-band management:

1

Connect a stand-alone terminal or a PC running
a terminal emulator directly to the IntraSwitch’s
Console port using a

straight-through

RS-232

serial cable with a male connector.
