Abstract:
Certain aspects direct to systems and methods for providing an intuitive user interface (UI) for device or vendor independent network switch management via a management controller. The management controller is communicatively connected to a network switch through a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface. The management controller provides a web UI. When a remote computing device request the web UI, the management controller sends the web UI to the remote computing device. Thus, a user at the remote computing device may upload the parsed information of the MIB file to the management controller through the UI. The management controller then processes the parsed information of the MIB file, and displays the processed parsed information in a hierarchical organization through the UI. Then the management controller establishes a communication between the management controller and the network switch through the SNMP interface based on the parsed information of the MIB file.
