Preface
OSM/ESM with Network Management
As of firmware version 2.0, all Industrial Ethernet OSMs (Optical Switch Modules)
and Industrial Ethernet ESMs (Electrical Switch Modules) have integrated
management functions.
These functions provide you with simple methods of modifying settings on
OSMs/ESMs, monitoring OSMs/ESMs, and running network diagnostics. If you
already have OSMs and ESMs, you can upgrade them with the network
management functions by simply downloading new firmware via the serial port.
This user manual describes the functions of firmware version 2.3.5
Note
Upgrading OSMs version 1 (order number 6GK1105-0AA00) or ORMs is not
possible.
The OSM/ESM allows three separate ways of using network management, all of
which are possible at the same time:
S Web-Based Management (WBM); in other words, operation and diagnostics
using an Internet browser.
S SNMP Management; in other words, parameter assignment and diagnostics
from one or more management stations.
S A command interpreter (CLI - command-line interface) accessible both via the
serial port of the OSM/ESM and using TELNET
With remote monitoring (RMON), the OSM/ESM provides you with a wide range of
diagnostic functions for your network. You can, for example, record network load
trends and visualize them on a network management console or you can configure
the OSM/ESM to send traps (alarm messages) to notify you of faults and errors.
