ExtremeWare Vista is device-management software running in the switch that allows
you to access the switch over a TCP/IP network, using a standard Web browser. Any
properly configured standard Web browser that supports frames and JavaScript (such as
Netscape Navigator 3.0 or higher, or Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.0 or higher) can be
used to manage the system.
ExtremeWare Vista provides a subset of the command-line interface (CLI) commands
available for configuring and monitoring the switch. If a particular command is not
available using ExtremeWare Vista, you must use the CLI to access the desired
functionality.
