Configuring the Management Ports
How to Configure the Duplex Operation of the Management Interface
Options
The following options are available:
•
duplex—
Duplex operation of the management port (0/1 or 0/2):
–
full
–
half
–
auto (default)—Auto-negotiation (do not force duplex on the link)
If the speed parameter is configured to
auto
, changing the duplex parameter has no effect.
Step 1
Access the interface configuration mode for the management interface you want to configure.
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type
interface Mng (0/1 | 0/2)
and press
Enter
.
Step 2
From the SCE(config if)# prompt, type
duplex
auto|full|half
and press
Enter
.
Specify the desired duplex option.
Configuring the Duplex Operation of the Management Interface: Example
The following example shows how to use this command to configure the management port to half duplex
mode.
SCE#config
SCE(config)#interface mng 0/2
SCE(config if)#duplex half
Specifying the Active Management Port
This command explicitly specifies which management port is currently active. Its use varies slightly,
depending on whether the management interface is configured as a redundant interface (auto failover
enabled) or not (auto failover disabled).
•
auto failover enabled (automatic mode)—The specified port becomes the currently active port, in
effect forcing a failover action even if a failure has not occurred.
•
auto failover disabled (manual mode)—The specified port should correspond to the cabled Mng
port, which is the only functional port and therefore must be and remain the active management port.
Step 1
Access the interface configuration mode for the management interface you want to configure as the
active management port.
From the SCE(config)# prompt, type
interface Mng (0/1 | 0/2)
and press
Enter
.
Step 2
Type
active-port
and press
Enter
