3.4.3 Management Architecture

All of the management application modules use the same Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI). By unifying

management methods with a single MAPI, configuration parameters set using one method (console port, for example) are

immediately displayable by the other management methods (for example, SNMP agent of Web browser).

The management architecture of the switch adheres to the IEEE open standard. This compliance assures customers that the

switch is compatible with, and will interoperate with other solutions that adhere to the same open standard.
