Entering the Management Interface Configuration Mode, page 5-3
•
Configuring the Management Port Physical Parameters, page 5-4
•
Management Interface Redundancy, page 5-8
•
Monitoring the Management Interface, page 5-10
Perform the following tasks to configure the management ports:
•
Configure the IP address and subnet mask (only one IP address for the management interface, not
one IP address per port).
•
Configure physical parameters:
–
Duplex
–
Speed
–
active port (optional)
•
Configure redundant management interface behavior (optional):
–
Failover mode
Step 1
Cable the desired management port, connecting it to the remote management console via the LAN. If
connecting both management ports for redundancy, connect the to the LAN using a switch.
Step 2
Configure the management port physical parameters. (See
“Configuring the Management Port Physical
Parameters” section on page 5-4
.)
Step 3
(Optional) Configure the system with management interface redundancy. (see
Redundancy” section on page 5-8
.)
Entering the Management Interface Configuration Mode
When entering Management Interface Configuration Mode, you must indicate the number of the
management port to be configured:
•
0/1—Port1
•
0/2—Port2
The following Management Interface commands are applied only to the port specified when entering
Management Interface Configuration Mode. Therefore, each port must be configured separately:
•
speed
•
duplex
The following Management Interface commands are applied to both management ports, regardless of
which port had been specified when entering Management Interface Configuration Mode. Therefore,
both ports are configured with one command:
•
ip address
•
auto-failover
