Methods of Managing a Switch 57
Command Line
Interface
Management using
SSH
The Switch 5500 supports Secure Shell version 2.0 (SSHv2), allowing
secure access to the Command Line Interface of the switch.
If you use SSH to administer your switch, and the network traffic is
intercepted, no passwords or configuration information are visible in the
data. To securely administer the switch using the Command Line Interface
you need a third party SSH client.
Web Interface
Management
Each switch has an internal set of Web pages that allow you to manage
the switch using a Web browser remotely, over an IP network (see
Figure 23).

SNMP Management You can manage a switch using any network management workstation
running the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) as shown in
Figure 24. For a description of 3Com Network Management applications,
