This guide provides instructions on how to configure management networks for accessing networked devices using console servers, Ethernet out-of-band, and Ethernet in-band. Large production networks can span across multiple rooms, buildings, or cities, and contain dozens or hundreds of network switches. Using a management network separate from the production network is often desired to configure and manage these environments. There are three types of management networks that are discussed in this guide, each offering its benefits. Network administrators may use one or more methods to configure, test, and manage their setups.

The purpose of this guide is to provide general guidelines for troubleshoot layer 1 connectivity issues when using transceivers in Ethernet switches.
