Highly Graphical User Interface

The NetSight Switch/Topology Manager’s main view is the window from which all 802.1Q VLAN

administration is initiated. The NetSight Switch/Topology Manager’s main window is divided into a left panel

Tree View and a right panel Details View. The Tree View displays a hierarchical representation of the domains

in the network and their devices and VLANs. The Details View and tabbed pages display detailed information

about the item selected in the Tree View. Menus at the top of the view, as well as pop-up menus available

from most ancillary views, provide access to specific administrative tasks. Status fields at the bottom of the

view provide error and status information.

Flexible Management at the VLAN, Switch and Port Level

VLAN management allows a network administrator to quickly create, configure, and delete 802.1Q VLANs

in a domain. Once a VLAN has been created, it can easily be assigned to a switch or switch port using the

drag-and-drop feature or the Assign PVID menu option. End systems connected to a port become members

of the VLAN to which the port has been assigned. The VLAN Properties window allows the administrator

to view and, in some cases, change the operating characteristics of any 802.1Q VLAN in a domain.

Switch management allows a network administrator to create, configure, and delete all 802.1Q switches

in a domain. The Switch Properties window provides the administrator detailed information about the switch

and the ability to change some operational characteristics.

Port management is available from the Port Properties window and the main window tabbed pages. The

Port Properties window allows a network administrator to view and, in some cases, change the operational

characteristics of a port. The General tab of the Port Properties window provides general information about

the port. The 802.1Q tabbed page displays and lets you configure port properties specific to the 802.1Q

operation: Administrative Type (Hybrid, QTrunk, DTrunk), Ingress Filtering (Enable, Disable), Acceptable

Frame Types (Accepted Tagged, Accept All Frames), Enable/Disable on GVRP and GMRP, and set Default

Priority (0-7).

Global Configuration Wizards for Application-Aware Management

You can use the Priority Classification Global Configuration Wizard to create a priority classification rule and add

it to all the ports or multiple ports in a domain. This lets you prioritize certain types of traffic. A business

that runs SAP traffic and considers this the most important application on its network is a good example. The

administrator would give IPX SAP traffic a priority 7, which is the highest priority on the network, ensuring

that it would get through over lower priority applications.

In addition, the Egress List Global Configuration Wizard lets you add or remove a VLAN from the Egress Lists

on all the ports or multiple ports in a domain. Servers are a good example for the use of the Egress List.

VLANs can be configured in the Egress List so that all users can communicate with the servers, but the users

will not be able to communicate with each other.

QoS and Rate Limiting for Mission-Critical Environments

Rate limiting lets an administrator set limits on any ingress or egress ports in their switch fabric. This can

control a particular server or the bandwidth going to servers or groups of users. QoS provides application

control or user control in a switch fabric. With QoS defined over multiple Layers (Layer 2, 3 and 4) you can

ensure that applications are received on time and fully intact from the core to the edges of your switch fabric.
