• CiscoView application
The CiscoView device-management application displays the switch image
that you can use to set configuration parameters and to view switch status and
performance information. The CiscoView application, which you purchase
separately, can be a standalone application or part of a Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) platform. See the CiscoView documentation
for more information.
• SNMP network management
You can manage switches from a SNMP-compatible management station that
is running platforms such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager. The switch
supports a comprehensive set of Management Information Base (MIB)
extensions and four Remote Monitoring (RMON) groups. See the switch
software configuration guide on Cisco.com and the documentation that came
with your SNMP application for more information.
Network Configurations
See the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com for network
configuration concepts and examples of using the switch to create dedicated
network segments and interconnecting the segments through Gigabit Ethernet
connections.
