ANAGEMENT
Out-of-band management allows you to manage the CyberSWITCH from some remote location
without making use of the LAN or WAN connections. Out-of-band refers to the fact that you are
not using normal data channels. The following graphic illustrates an out-of-band connection.
Connection instructions:
1.
At the CyberSWITCH:
•
complete your LAN and WAN (ISDN) connections
•
using the
ampconf
Manage Mode command, configure the CyberSWITCH for the modem
you will use
•
connect a modem to the CyberSWITCH (using the Console connection)
•
connect the modem to the analog line (use a standard PC modem RS232 cable for this, do
not use the supplied cable)
2.
At the remote management site:
•
connect the managing PC to a modem
•
connect the modem to the analog line (use a standard PC modem RS232 cable for this, do
not use the supplied cable)

EPLACEMENT
There are two reasons for wanting a LAN replacement:
•
to provide a connection to manage the CyberSWITCH without using a LAN connection, or
•
no LAN connection is possible because your PC does not have a NIC card.

use a directly connected PC, monitor, and keyboard to manage your CyberSWITCH.
