Device Information
This window contains the main settings for all the major functions for the Switch. It appears automatically when you
log on to the Switch. To return to the Device Information window after viewing other windows, click the DES-3200
Series link.
The Device Information window shows the Switch’s MAC Address (assigned by the factory and unchangeable), the
Boot PROM Version, Firmware Version, Hardware Version, and many other important types of information. This is
helpful to keep track of PROM and firmware updates and to obtain the Switch’s MAC address for entry into another
network device’s address table, if necessary. In addition, this window displays the status of functions on the Switch
to quickly assess their current global status.
Many functions are hyper-linked for easy access to enable quick configuration from this window.
