How to Connect to the Mgmt Port
The port on the switch’s front panel labelled “Mgmt” provides an out-of-band
network connection to the management agent of the switch using TCP/IP over
Ethernet. You can access the switch from anywhere in the attached network using
Telnet, a web browser, or other network management tools.
Note:
The information in this section applies to switches running DCSS software.
For switches using ONIE, see
“Performing the Initial System Boot for ONIE” on

Note:
The management port provides direct TCP/IP over Ethernet access to the
switch’s configuration. To prevent unauthorized access, it is recommended that it
only be connected to a secure private network.
