using an out-of-band connection or the BootP protocol.
Telnet Connection
Prior to accessing the switch via an in-band Telnet connection, you must
first configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway

The on-board configuration program can be accessed using Telnet from
any computer attached to the network. The switch can also be managed

network management software.
Use the Network Configuration menu to specify the
maximum number of simultaneous Telnet sessions that
