Ethernet Management Port Overview


The Ethernet management port on the Sun Secure Application Switch allows you to gain remote access by using Telnet to access the command-line interface (CLI). You can also use the Ethernet management port for HTTP, HTTPS, SSH, or SNMP access. Typically, the Ethernet management port operates best with the default settings. There is a configuration command available to change settings as necessary.
