Fast Ethernet Switch ES3526XA/ES3510

Firmware Version 1.1.0.39

INTRODUCTION:

The ES3526XA/ES3510 is a cost effective managed Fast Ethernet L2/L4 Switch. The ES3526XA/ES3510
contains 24/8 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet ports with two Combo-Giga ports and two Gigabit Base-T ports.
The base hardware is a 1U height, 19”/13”rack mountable metal enclosure. The switch can be managed either by
in-band management via the network station remotely or out-of-band management via the console port (RS232)
locally. An imbedded Web agent also provides management capability to any computer on the network via
common HTTP browsers such as Netscape Navigator (Version 6.2 or above) or Microsoft’s Internet Explorer
(Version 5.0 or above).

Local Console Management (LCM) allows the user to monitor and configure the ES3526XA/ES3510 from a VT-type
terminal. LCM can be used to configure features such as SNMP community names and access rights, Port
Enable/Disable, firmware downloads, and Device IP address as well as most other parameters. LCM can also
provide statistical and diagnostic information about the entire device or an individual port.

Management of the switch is password protected; the same password is used for LCM and for the Web browser
interface. Prior to accessing the Management Module via a network connection, a valid IP address, subnet mask,
and in some cases a default gateway must be configured using an out-of-band connection or the BootP/DHCP
protocol. The management option provides SNMP, RMON (4 groups: 1,2,3,9), and Web management for system
control and statistical monitoring.

It is recommended that one thoroughly review this release notes prior to the installation or upgrade of
this product.
