ELTEX MES3108 User Manual

16 MES3000 Ethernet switch series
SNMP
SNMP is used for monitoring and management of network devices. For system
access control purpose, the community record list is defined, where each record
contains access privileges.
Command line interface
MES3000 switches CLI management is performed locally via serial port RS-232 or
remotely via telnet, SSH. Console command line interface (CLI) is the industrial
standard. CLI interpreter contains the list of commands and keywords that will
help the user and reduce the amount of input data.
SYSLOG
Syslog is a protocol designed for transmission of system event messages and error
notifications to remote servers.
SNTP
(Simple Network Time
Protocol)
SNTP is a network time synchronization protocol; it allows to perform time
synchronization of the network device with the server with accuracy up to 1ms.
Traceroute
Traceroute is a service function that allows to display data transfer routes in IP
networks.
Controlled access
management—privilege
levels
Administrator can define privilege levels for users of the device and settings for
each privilege level (read-only—level 1, full access—level 15).
Management interface
blocking
The switch can block access to each management interface (SNMP, CLI). Blocking
can be set independently for each type of access:
Telnet (CLI over Telnet session)
Secure Shell (CLI over SSH)
SNMP
Local authentication
Passwords can be stored in the switch database for local authentication.
IP address filtering for
SNMP
Access via SNMP is allowed only for specific IP addresses, that are the part of
SNMP community.
RADIUS client
RADIUS protocol is used for authentication, authorization and accounting. RADIUS
server operates with the user database, that contains authentication data for each
user. MES3000 switches contain client part of the RADIUS protocol.
TACACS+
(Terminal Access
Controller Access Control
System)
Device supports client authentication with TACACS+ protocol. TACACS+ protocol
provides centralized security system for authentication of users, gaining access to
the device, and centralized management system, while ensuring compatibility with
RADIUS and other authentication processes.
SSH server
SSH server functionality allows SSH client to establish secure connection to the
device for management purposes.
Macrocommand
support
This function allows to create macrocommands—command sets—and apply them
for device configuration.
2.2.8 Additional functions
