Initial configuration of the switch requires user to connect either a terminal or a computer to the switch console port. Once user gets access to the switch and establishes CLI (command-line interface) over the serial console connection, then assign an IP address to the management port and create an IP route to the gateway. Keep the following points in mind:

  • The console port provides local serial access to the switch.

  • The Ethernet management port is used for out-of-band network management tasks. Before using the management port for the first time, an IP address must be assigned to that port.

...

            set system management-ethernet eth0 ip-gateway {IPv4 | IPv6} <ip_address>

Configuration Example

Step1         Set static IP addresses for management interface eth0.

...

Step4         Verify the configuration.

  • Run run show system management-ethernet command to view the configuration information, status and traffic statistics information of the management interface.
