Asanté IntraCore 35516 Series Switches
1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Asanté IntraCore 35516 Series Giga-
bit switch. The IC35516 is from a family of multi-media and multi-
protocol switches capable of supporting Layer 2 switching and
Layer 3 and Layer 4 protocols. They are designed to offer industry-
leading performance at a very competitive cost of ownership.
Each IntraCore 35516 switch is a 16-port solution for Gigabit
Ethernet switching using shared-memory architecture to achieve
Gigabit switching on all ports. The highly integrated system includes
MACs, address look-up, content addressable memory (CAM),
switch engine, primary buffer memory, and programmable quality of
service (QoS).
Two models in the IntraCore 35516 series cover different customer
applications.
The IC35516-T is a 16-port switch that has 12 10/100/1000BaseT
ports and 4 dual-function Gigabit ports that support either
1000BaseT RJ-45 Gigabit ports or GBIC Gigabit ports.
The IC35516-G is a 16-port switch that has 12 GBIC style Gigabit
Ethernet ports and 4 dual-function Gigabit ports that support either
1000BaseT RJ-45 Gigabit ports or GBIC Gigabit ports.
The following types of GBIC modules are supported on the IC
35516 switches:
• 1000SX multi-mode fiber for 500 m applications
• 1000LX single-mode fiber for 2 km applications
• 1000LH single-mode fiber for 20 km applications
• 1000LZ single-mode fiber for ultra distance (120 km) appli-
cations
• 1000BaseT copper gigabit for low-cost 100 m applications
The system can operate as a stand alone network or be used in
combination with other IntraCore switches in the backbone.

1.5 Management and Configuration
The switch is managed using Command Line Interface (CLI) in or-
der to access several different command modes. Each command
mode provides a group of related commands. Refer to the User’s
Manual on the accompanying CD-ROM for more information.
Console Interface
Support for local, out-of-band management is delivered through a
terminal or modem attached to the EIA/TIA-232 interface. Users can
access the switch by connecting a PC or terminal to the console
port of the switch, via a serial cable. The switch is shipped with a
default password Asante set on the console line (the password is
case-sensitive), and a default IP address of 192.168.0.1/24. The
default settings for the terminal emulation program are as follows:
9600-8-N-1
Remote in-band management is available through Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) and Telnet client. When connecting
via a Telnet session (line vty0) the default password is also Asante
(case-sensitive).
See the User’s Manual for configuration information.
