Refer to figure 6-15 and provide a simple written example as it applies to business outlining and what type of command, manageability, and problem diagnosis managed switches are capable of. Respond to at least two of your classmates? postings.
b. PERFORMANCE SUMMARY DATA
c. At the broadest level, software can search through the SNMP manager?s data and can present the status data to the network administrator in summarized form, giving the administrator a good indication of how well the network is functioning and of whether changes will be needed to cope with expected traffic growth.
d. THE COST SAVINGS OF MANAGEABILITY
Managed switches are much more expensive to buy than nonmanaged switches. However, central management slashes management labor, which is considerable. This labor cost reduction usually far offsets the higher switch purchase costs. The main benefit of network management, then, is to reduce overall costs.
e. Managed switches are more expensive than nonmanaged switches, but they reduce management labor in large networks enough to more than offset managed switch purchase costs. Managed switches reduce overall costs.
