Other Management Options
You can use SNMP management applications such as CiscoWorks Small Network Management
Solution (SNMS) and HP OpenView to configure and manage the switch. You also can manage it
from an SNMP-compatible workstation that is running platforms such as HP OpenView or
SunNet Manager.
The Cisco IE2100 Series Configuration Registrar is a network management device that works with
embedded Cisco Networking Services (CNS) agents in the switch software. You can use IE2100 to
automate initial configurations and configuration updates on the switch.
See the “Accessing Help Online” section on page 23 for a list of supporting documentation.
5 Planning Switch Stacks
Before connecting the Catalyst 3750 switches in a stack, keep in mind these planning considerations:
• The size of the switch. See the“Technical Specifications” appendix of the Catalyst 3750 Switch
Hardware Installation Guide for the switch dimensions.
Stacking together switches of the same
size makes it easier to cable the switches.
• Length of cable. Depending on the configuration of your switch stack, you might need different
sized cables.
If you don’t specify the length of the StackWise cable, the 0.5-meter cable is supplied.
If you require the 1-meter cable or 3-meter cable, you can order it from your Cisco supplier. For
cable numbers, see the
Catalyst 3750 Switch Hardware Installation Guide.
Note For concepts and procedures to manage switch stacks, refer to the switch software
configuration guide.
