Switch management interfaces

Introduction

The switch main configuration is stored in JSON format, however to manage the switch the following options are supported:

  • Command line interface (CLI): The CLI can be accessed via Console, SSH and Telnet.
  • Web interface: Web interface can be accessed via HTTP/HTTPS.
  • SNMP (v1/v2c/v3): Currently limited to read-only operations and trap support; no general SNMP write support. See MIB conformance information in release zip for details.

Configuration

Management services can be configured in the management configuration context.

example:/#> configure
example:/config/#> management
example:/config/management/#>

From the management configuration context it is possible to enter specific sub-contexts to manage settings of individual services:

  • web: Manage settings for the Web interface.
  • cli: Manage general settings for the CLI. These settings apply to CLI, irrespective if accessed via Console, SSH or Telnet.
  • ssh: Manage settings for the SSH service.
  • telnet: Manage settings for the Telnet service.
  • snmp: Manage SNMP settings.
