management through SNMPv1, SNMPv2c or SNMPv3.
◆
Remote Monitoring (RMON) – Configures local collection of detailed statistics
or events which can be subsequently retrieved through SNMP.
◆
Switch Clustering – Configures centralized management by a single unit over a
group of switches connected to the same local network.
◆
Time Range – Sets a time range during which various functions are applied,
including applied ACLs or PoE.
◆
Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) – Configures a protection switching
