Chapter 3 Using HiveManager
26
Aerohive
When deciding to use one interface (MGT) or both (MGT and LAN), keep in mind that there are two main types
of traffic to and from the HiveManager:
•
HiveManager management traffic for admin access and FTP uploads
•
HiveAP management traffic for CAPWAP, SNMP monitoring and notifications, and TFTP configuration and
software downloads
When you enable both interfaces, HiveManager management traffic uses the MGT interface while HiveAP
management traffic uses the LAN interface, as shown in
Figure 2
.
Figure 2
Using Both MGT and LAN Interfaces
When only the MGT interface is enabled, both types of management traffic use the same interface. A possible
drawback to this approach is that the two types of management traffic cannot be separated into two different
networks. For example, if you have an existing management network, you cannot use it for the HiveManager
management traffic. Both the HiveManager and HiveAP management traffic would need to flow on the
operational network because the MGT interface would need to be on that network so that the HiveManager
could communicate with the HiveAPs (see
Figure 3
). However, if the separation of both types of traffic is not an
issue, then using just the MGT interface is a simple approach to consider.

stopHiveManager.sh root public
reboot
You can now disconnect the serial cable.
Note:
To set static routes after you log in to the GUI, click

Static Routes:
The HiveManager sends traffic destined for 10.1.6.0/24 to 10.1.2.1.
The HiveManager sends traffic destined for 10.1.7.0/24 to 10.1.2.1.
Default Gateway:
10.1.1.1 (The HiveManager sends traffic here when there are no specific routes to the destination.)
