Allied Telesis AT-S79 - Preface

13
Preface
This guide contains instructions on how to use the AT-S79 management
software to manage and monitor the AT-GS950/16 and AT-GS950/24
Gigabit Ethernet Smart switches.
The AT-S79 management software has two management interfaces: a
menus interface and a web browser interface. You access the menus
interface through the console port on the switch. You access the web
browser interface from any management workstation on your network that
has a web browser application. For background information on the
management interfaces, refer to Chapter 1, “Overview” on page 17.
Note
The AT-S79 management software does not support remote
management with the Telnet application protocol or an SNMP
program.
Note
The interface illustrations in this book show the interface for the
AT-GS960/16 Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch. With the exception of
the number of ports displayed, the features also apply to the
AT-GS9500/24 Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch.
