You can run nmap 192.168.2.3 from wherever on the local network. If there are other admins monitoring that Cisco switch, you should let them know you are running a remote scan.

in cisco small business you need open port for snmp. you can do it in shell or by web interface.
in web interface go under Security>TCP/UDP Services> and check SNMP service enable.
