3 Preparation for Management
JetNet 5728G series Industrial Managed Switch provides both in-band and out-band
configuration methods. You can configure the switch via RS-232 console cable if you
don’t attach your admin PC to your network, or if you lose network connection to your
JetNet 5728G. This is so-called out-band management. It wouldn’t be affected by
network performance.
The in-band management means you can remotely manage the switch via the network.
You can choose Telnet or Web-based management. You just need to know the device’s
IP address and you can remotely connect to its embedded HTTP web pages or Telnet
console.
