Connecting to the Management Port

The management port is a dedicated port interface which is segregated from data traffic
crossing other downlink or uplink ports. The port supports auto-negotiation. If the
attached device also supports auto-negation, the transmission can operate in either half
or full duplex, and data rate can be in 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 1Gbps. Telnet, SNMP, and
Web browser utility can all go through this port for local or remote management after the
IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are properly configured.
CAUTION
• To avoid an IP address conflict, make sure to complete the initial configuration

port to the network. For more information on how to configure the switch,
