Advantages of Using the Menu Interface
Figure 2-1. Example of the Console Interface Display
■ Provides quick, easy management access to a menu-driven subset of
switch configuration and performance features:
• IP addressing
• System information
• VLANs and GVRP
• Local passwords
• Port Security
•SNMP communities
• Port and Static Trunk Group
• Time protocols
• Spanning Tree
The menu interface also provides access for:
•Setup screen • Switch and port statistic and counter displays
• Event Log display • Reboots
• Switch and port • Software downloads
status displays
■ Offers out-of-band access (through the RS-232 connection) to the
switch, so network bottlenecks, crashes, lack of configured or correct IP
address, and network downtime do not slow or prevent access
