Chapter 2: Accessing and Managing the System
The following command example changes the protocol to bootstrap:
(SafeGuardOS) # configure terminal
(SafeGuardOS) (config) # service protocol none
(SafeGuardOS) (config) # service protocol bootp
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #
Setting the IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway of the System
To set the IP address, netmask, and gateway of the management port, use the serviceport
ip command in Global Configuration mode. Before running this command, however, the
service port protocol must be set to
none first (see Setting the IP Configuration Protocol on
page 46).
serviceport ip ipaddr netmask [gateway]
The following example sets the service port configuration:
(SafeGuardOS) # configure terminal
(SafeGuardOS) (config) # serviceport protocol none
(SafeGuardOS) (config) # serviceport ip 172.68.15.1 255.255.0.0
(SafeGuardOS) (config) #
Enabling or Disabling the Management Port
The management port is enabled, by default, and so therefore is not explicitly displayed
in the show running-config command output. The serviceport enable command enables
the PHY and lights the management port link LED. The no version of the command
disables the PHY and extinguishes the management port link LED. The Global
Configuration commands use the following syntax:
serviceport enable
no serviceport enable
The commands have no parameters or variables.
dhcp (Default) Specifies DHCP as the protocol.
Syntax Description ipaddr IP address for the service port.
netmask Network mask for the service port.
gateway Optional for Controller only. Gateway IP
address. (To set the default gateway on the
Switch, use ip route.)
