RICi-622GE Ver. 1.0 Physical Description 1-5
Inband Management
For inband management, you can configure the RICi-622GE host for tagged or
untagged operation:
• When host tagging is enabled, the host packets receive a VLAN tag, creating a
dedicated management VLAN.
• When tagging is disabled, no traffic separation is performed, and
management packets can be forwarded to the user port.
Security
The following security protocols are provided by RICi-622GE to ensure client-
server communication privacy and correct user authentication:
• RADIUS (client authentication only)
• SSLv3 for Web-based management application
• SSHv2 for Secure Shell communication session
• SNMPv3 (SNMPv1 is used if SNMPv3 is not enabled).
Diagnostics
Loopbacks can be closed on any of the SDH/SONET ports. Only one loopback can
be active at a time. When the loopback is active, data coming from the
SDH/SONET network is looped back to the SDH/SONET network, disrupting the
traffic.
Statistics
RICi-622GE collects performance statistics for the physical layers of the Gigabit
Ethernet ports and SDH/SONET ports, as well as for Ethernet flows and VCGs.
