Brocade FCoE Switch Module for IBM BladeCenter: Installation and User Guide
1. Log on to the management module as described in the User’s Guide or Command Line
Interface Reference Guide for your advanced management module.
If necessary, obtain the IP address of the management module from your system
administrator. The management module window opens.
2. Click I/O Module Tasks → Configuration and click the bay number that corresponds to the
location of the switch module that you installed.
3. Click Advanced Configuration and make sure that external management is enabled.
4. Click I/O Module Tasks → Admin/Power/Restart and make sure that the external ports are
enabled for the switch module that you installed.
Configuring the switch module through the Telnet interface
The switch module supports a command-line interface (CLI) that you can use to configure and
control the switch module over the network through the Telnet program. You can use the CLI to
perform many basic network-management functions. In addition, you can configure the switch
module for management through an SNMP-based network-management system. The following
sections describe how to use the Telnet interface to access the switch module, change its settings,
and monitor its operation.
Connecting to the switch module
If you know the IP address for the switch module and you have an existing network connection, you
can use the Telnet program from an external management station or the management module to
access and control the switch module. The management station and the switch module must be on
the same IP subnet. If you have to obtain the IP address for the switch module or establish a
network connection, contact your system or network administrator. Be sure to use the correct IP
address in the required command, as specified in
“Accessing the main menu.”
Accessing the main menu
To connect to the switch module through the Telnet interface, complete the following steps:
1. From a DOS command-line prompt, type telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and press Enter.
where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address for the switch module.
2. The default user ID is USERID and the default password is PASSW0RD, where the sixth
character is a zero.
Important: The apply command changes the currently active configuration. If you want your change
to persist beyond the next reboot of the switch, you must enter the save command. This command
stores the current switch configuration and all changes in nonvolatile memory.
