6.3 .edge - Network Settings
This topic describes how to configure the network settings for a processing blade.
Active Network Ports
Each blade is equipped with 8 network interfaces: 6 media + 2 management ports.
The two management ports are always active: MGMT 1 & MGMT 2.
The active media ports are defined by the
: either SFP 1 to 4 for 25G (the default) or QSFP 1 & 2 for
100G (requires optional license).
Default Network Settings
By default, MGMT 1 and all media ports are configured for DHCP. MGMT 2 is assigned a static IP.

Resetting the Network Settings
The
Call Home
button (on the front of the processing blade) can be used to reset the two MGMT ports to their default
network settings. To perform the reset, press and hold
Call Home
for more than 10 seconds. The
Call Home
reset does not
affect the media ports.
Control Network Scheme
For the initial setup, it is recommended to connect the blade to the HOME network using MGMT 1 (as this will allow a control
IP address to be assigned by HOME's DHCP server).
Alternatively, the MGMT 2 port can be used if you need to reach the processing blade via a known static IP. In this instance,
it is important to check that there are no duplicate IP addresses on the network (e.g. from another MGMT 2 port with the
same default IP).
Once a connection is established, .edge supports two possible control schemes:
Out-of-band
- control data arrives via the MGMT ports: 2 x 1GbE (via SFP). This scheme requires a dedicated
management network. To achieve redundant control, you must use both interfaces.
In-band
- control data arrives via the media ports. This scheme can be used if there is no separate management
network.
Media Network IPs
By default, the active media ports are configured for DHCP. This means that, once the port is connected to the media
network, it is assigned a source IP address by HOME's DHCP server. If you wish to use static source IP addresses, then
these must be manually configured.
