Overview
The AT-S45 management software is intended for the AT-9410GB
Gigabit Ethernet Switch. You use the software to adjust the operating
parameters of the switch. Some of the functions that you can perform
with the software include:
❑ Enable and disable ports
❑ Configure port parameters, such as port speed and duplex mode
❑ Create virtual LANs (VLANs)
❑ Create port trunks and port mirrors
❑ Assign an Internet Protocol (IP) address and subnet mask
❑ Activate and configure the Spanning Tree Protocol
❑ Configure port security
The AT-S45 management software comes pre-installed on the switch
with default settings for all its operating parameters. The default settings
may be adequate for some networks and may not need to be changed. If
this is true for your network, then you can use the switch as an
unmanaged switch by simply connecting the unit to your network, as
explained in the hardware installation guide.
Note
The default settings for the management software can be found in
Appendix A, AT-S45 Default Settings on page 232.
