- CSS
In a CSS, two switches are connected through dedicated CSS cables to form a logical switch. A single switch cannot meet requirements of the increasing access volume of a data center and network reliability. To meet the forwarding requirement of the data center and improve network reliability, the CSS technology is used. After two switches set up a CSS, one switch functions as the master switch, and the other functions as the backup switch.
- Log Management
The Log Management page displays the latest 300 logs of the device. You can query and delete the logs on this page.
- SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a standard network management protocol widely used on TCP/IP networks. SNMP uses a central computer (a network management station) that runs network management software to manage network elements.
- EasyOperation
This chapter describes how to configure roles, groups, and clients to implement Easy-Operation.
- IP Management
Management VLAN (mVLAN) allows you to use the VLANIF interface of the mVLAN to log in to the switch to manage devices in a centralized manner.
- Device Management
This section describes how to view the restart records and electronic label of a device.
