Management
In-band network management allows you to manage, control,
and monitor the IntraSwitch 5308FL and each of its ports over
the Ethernet network.
You can perform these functions by accessing the IntraSwitch
5308FL via one of the following methods:
❏ By connecting with a terminal emulation pro-
gram such as Telnet
1
and using the Local Man-
agement Interface.
❏ By connecting with a supported World Wide
Web browser and using the Web Management
Interface.
❏ By connecting with any SNMP-based network
management application and using its interface.
To manage the IntraSwitch 5308FL via in-band management:
1 Make sure the network to which the IntraSwitch
5308FL is connected is up and functioning.

nal emulator, a supported World Wide Web
browser, or any SNMP-based network manage-
ment application.
