Smart Ethernet Switch Series User’s Manual
Chapter 3. The Remote Management
Tool
3.1. Overview
The Remote Management Tool (RMT) allows you to configure the switch from a remote
location on the network without directly connecting a computer to the switch. If you have more
than one switch on the network, you can maintain multiple switches using the RMT.
The RMT uses a unique RRCP protocol that allows you to access and manage the switch
through the Ethernet network. This provides management security as the switch is not
manageable over the Internet.
You can configure advanced features (such as VLAN, trunking, port mirroring, etc.) using the
RMT. You can also back up, restore or reset the smart switch’s configuration.
The RMT screens are best view with a screen resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels or
higher.
