Hi,
I want to connect remotely to a management port of a group of switches (not stack).
There is 2 types of switches: switches with dedicated Management port, and switches without.
To simplify ly case: I have 2 switches:
->3650X with management port
->3560 without a management port.
How can I connect remotely to them?
one possible solution: putting a hub to connect management ports. But how to access to this hub remotely? and how to access its one management port?
Is is possible to do it without hub?
Making a connection with a cable from management port to the "normal" ports seems not suitable solution. Am I wrong?
Thanks in advance.

- In general and in terms of security , you may be better off by using a managing-server , on your Intranet, shielded through Firewalling from and or access from specific sources and users, then configure switch-management-access on the particular 'intranet-network-server'

Hi marce,
Thanks for replying.
I think there is a misunderstanding.
What I want is just to be able to access management remotely in LAN. There is no security problem I'm facing: all machines are working behind a firewall.
Thanks.
