3.3.2
Using the Service Port or Netowrk Interface for Remote Management
The service port is a dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band management. W e recommend that you
use the service port to manage the switch. Traffic on this port is segregated from operational network
traffic on the switch ports and cannot be switched or routed to the operational network. Additonally, if
the production network is experiencing problems, the service port still allows you to access the switch
management interface and troubleshoot issues. Configuration options on the service port are limited,
which makes it difficult to accidentally cut off management access to the switch.
Alternatively, you can choose to manage the switch through the production network, which is known as
in-band management, Bacuse in-nbad management traffic is mixed in with production netowork traffic,
it is subject to all of the filtering rules usually applied on a switched/routed port such as ACLs and
VLAN tagging. You can access the in-band network management interface through a connection to
any
front-panel port.

Configuring Service Port Information
To disable DHCP/BootP and manually assign an IPv4 address, enter commands under Global
Configuration mode: serviceport
protocol none serviceport ip
ipaddress netmask
For example, serviceport ip 192.168.2.22 255.255.255.0
To disable DHCP/BootP and manually assign an IPv6 address, enter commands under Global
Configuration mode:
serviceport protocol none dhcp6
serviceport ipv6 enable
serviceport ipv6 address
address/prefix-length
serviceport ipv6 gateway
ipv6-address
To view the assigned or configured network address, use:
show serviceport
To enable the DHCP/DHCPv6 client on the service port, use:
serviceport protocol dhcp
serviceport protocol
dhcp6
To enable the BootP client on service port, use:
serviceport protocol bootp
