Brocade 6542 Blade Server SAN I/O Module for Inspur Shangri-la Chassis Hardware Reference Manual

• An unused IP address and a corresponding subnet mask and gateway address if DHCP is not used
to set the DHCP address
• Access to an FTP server for backing up the switch module configuration
Default roles
Attributes of default roles cannot be modified; however, the default roles can be assigned to non-
default user accounts.
The following roles are default roles:
• The admin role has the highest privileges. All commands are accessible to the user associated with
the admin role. By default, the admin role has read and write access.
• The user role has limited privileges that are mostly restricted to show commands in the Privileged
EXEC mode. User accounts associated with the user role cannot access configuration commands
that are in the global configuration mode. By default, the user role has read-only access.
Methods for setting the IP address
You can configure the switch module with a static IP address, or you can use a Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to set the IP address of the switch module.
Default IP address parameters are stored on the switch module. DHCP is disabled by default. The
switch module supports IPv4 format addresses. You can reset the IP address from its default setting
using one of the following methods:
• Using the chassis management GUI
• Using the CLI menu from the serial console
• Using
Telnet
NOTE
Do not connect the switch module to the internal network until the IP address is correctly set for your
Ethernet network requirements.
Using the Inspur chassis management GUI
To configure the switch module using the Inspur chassis management GUI version 1.3.0, complete the
following steps:
NOTE
For the latest updated procedure, refer to the Inspur chassis documentation.
1. Log in to the Inspur chassis management GUI application.
2. Expand the
System Monitoring
menu in the left pane and select
