- Remote Console Management via a network or dial-up connection.
- Web Management via a network or dial-up connection.
- Using an SNMP Network Management Station.
3.2.1 Local Console Management
You can manage the SGSW-2620 locally by connecting a VT100 terminal, or a personal computer or
workstation with terminal emulation software, to the Switch serial port. The terminal or workstation
connects to the Switch serial port using a null modem cable that has the appropriate connectors on each
end.
This management method is ideal when:
- The network is unreliable
- The Network Manager does not have direct network connection
- A Network Manager does not support SNMP
