How to Configure the IP Address of the Management Interface
The user must define the IP address of the management interface.
Note
Changing the IP address of the management interface via telnet will result in loss of the telnet connection
and inability to reconnect with the interface.
Note
After changing the IP address, you must reload the SCE platform (
See
Rebooting and Shutting Down the
) so that the change will take effect properly in all internal and external
components of the SCE platform.
Options
The following options are available:
•
ip-address
— The IP address of the management interface. If both management ports are connected,
so that a backup management link is available, this IP address will be act as a virtual IP address for
the currently active management port, regardless of which physical port is currently active.
•
subnet mask
— subnet mask of the management interface.
Step 1
Connect the SCE platform directly to a local console.
Establishes contact with the SCE platform that is not dependent on the configured IP address.
Step 2
From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type
ip address
ip-address subnet-mask
and press
Enter
.
Configures a new IP address for the management interface
The command might fail if there is a routing table entry that is not part of the new subnet defined by the
new IP address and subnet mask..
Configuring the IP Address of the Management Interface: Example
The following example shows how to set the IP address of the SCE platform to 10.1.1.1 and the subnet
mask to 255.255.0.0.
SCE(config if)#ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.0.0
