  1. Connexium Managed Switches Management tools

  2. Connexium Managed Switch Management Tools • The Connexium Managed Switch offer includes a range of tools enabling Engineering and Maintenance Personnel to configure, diagnose, and monitor switches • Additional management tools provide the ability to store and retrieve switch configuration files for backup and the ability to upload the configuration file to the switch. • The Web based switch configurator allows the selection of the diagnostic capabilities that best suit the application and facility requirements. • Switch Configurator software, which is included with the switch, discovers switches and allows configuration of the IP, subnet and gateway addresses.

  3. Connexium Managed Switch Management Tools • Command Line Interface (CLI) - Script file based tool to configure switch functions via a local serial connection to the V24 serial port or remote connection via telnet. • Telnet Server - Allows users to configure the switch using CLI over an Ethernet connection • Web-based Interface - Allows users to configure and diagnose the switch via web pages accessed with a standard browser. • Remote Monitoring (RMON) - A standard network management protocol that allows monitoring and protocol analysis of a local area network gathered at a single workstation. • Backup – Storage of secondary Switch configuration file on a memory adapter (EAM), to a server via TFTP, or to a PC. • DHCP Option 82 - Allows a DHCP server that supports option 82 to assign the same IP address to any device connected to a particular switch port.

  4. Connexium Managed Switch Command Line Interface (CLI) • A Script File based tool to configure switch functions • Uses a local serial connection to the V24 serial port or remote connection via a telnet connection. • Allows switches to be configured or partially configured • Enables the comparison of 2 configurations by comparing the script files. • Typical local configuration: Model no. 490NTRJ11 Switch Configuration cable

  5. Connexium Managed Switch Telnet Server • Allows users to configure the switch using the Command Line Interface (CLI) over an Ethernet connection. • Enables switches to be configured remotely Cat 5E or 6 Ethernet cable

  6. Connexium Managed Switch Web-based Interface • Web based interface to configure and access switch diagnostic data. • Uses a standard web browser such as Internet Explorer or Firefox. • Allows access to the switch locally or from any location in the network. • Web browser applet which communicates with the device via the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) • Managed switches support both SNMP and Web-based management and can thus offer: • Extensive diagnostic and configuration functions for fast startup • Extensive network and device information

  7. Connexium Managed Switch Web-based Interface • Login web page that includes the Login Name and Password as shown below:

  8. Connexium Managed Switch Web-based Interface • Network web page used to configure switch IP address

  9. Connexium Managed Switch Remote Monitoring (RMON) • A standard network management protocol that allows monitoring and protocol analysis of a local area network from a single workstation • Defines MIBs that provide data (current and historical) that illustrate the performance of the network.) • An example of data provided, including packets sent, bytes sent, and packets dropped:

  10. Connexium Managed Switch Switch Configuration Backup • Connexium Switches offer options for backup and loading of switch configuration data. • The options to load a configuration file include: • Load a configuration saved on the switch • Load a configuration stored on a PC • Load a configuration stored as a specific URL • Load a configuration stored on a specific URL and saved on the switch • The options to save a configuration file, include: • Save to the switch • Save to a specific URL, in either binary or script format • Save to a PC, in either binary or script format • Select URL address for stored configuration file • Save /Load Configuration file to EAM (memory backup adapter)

  11. Connexium Managed Switch Switch Configuration Backup • Below is the web page for saving and loading switch configurations

  12. Connexium Managed Switch Memory Backup Adapter • The switch configuration data can be stored on an EAM (model number TCSEAM0100) for recovery and security. • EAM enables a very simple configuration data transfer to a substitute switch of the same type

  13. TFT server 149.218.5.3 149.218.5.4 149.218.4.7 149.218.4.6 149.218.4.5 Connexium Managed Switch TFTP Back-Up Configuration File • The switch configuration can be stored on a central server • The replacement configuration file can be forwarded to new device via TFTP

  14. Connexium Managed Switch Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), Option 82 • DHCP server can configure a switch (IP address etc.) based on system name • During startup operation, a switch receives its configuration data and the IP address is assigned based on the switch’s system name • DHCP Option 82 allows a switch to assign the same IP address to a device that is connected to a particular port.
