Introduction 21
Software Download

software, see "Software Download and Reboot
.

Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
The PowerConnect 6200 Series switches support boot image, firmware, and configuration upload or
download through TFTP.
Remote Monitoring (RMON)
RMON is a standard Management Information Base (MIB) that defines current and historical MAC-
layer statistics and control objects, allowing real-time information to be captured across the entire
network.
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Versions 1, 2, and 3
The system is fully manageable using a combination of MIB variables, whose combined values represent
all facets of the system state, and the SNMP protocol to examine and possibly modify these values.
SNMP v1/v2c/v3 over the UDP/IP transport protocol is supported.
Command Line Interface
Command Line Interface (CLI) syntax and semantics conform as much as possible to common industry
practice. CLI is composed of mandatory and optional elements. Context-sensitive help provides format
and value ranges allowed for current commands, and the CLI interpreter provides command and
keyword completion.
Syslog
Syslog is a protocol that allows event notifications to be sent to a set of desired remote servers where they
can be stored, examined, and acted upon.
For information about Syslog, see "Managing Logs."
SNTP
The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) assures accurate network switch clock time synchronization
up to the millisecond. Time synchronization is performed by a network SNTP server.
For more information about SNTP, see "Configuring SNTP Settings."
Real Time Clock
The Real Time Clock feature allows the user to set the time and date for the switch.
For information about Real Time Clock, see "Clock Detail."
