4.5.3.1 Management Port Parameters
These parameters define the IP parameters for the Management (MGMT) port
connecting the base station to the backbone.
The Ethernet interface of the Management port in the NPU operates using Auto
Negotiation, enabling communication at either 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, Full
Duplex.
4.5.3.1.1 Management Port IP Address
The IP address of the Management port.
The default is 10.0.0.1.
4.5.3.1.2 Management Port Subnet Mask
The Subnet mask of the Management port.
The default is 255.255.255.0.
4.5.3.1.3 Management Port Gateway
The Gateway IP address of the Management port.
The default is 0.0.0.0.
4.5.3.1.4 Management Port Dest Subnet and Management Port Dest Subnet
Mask
The Destination Subnet parameters define a Static Route, which is an IP subnet of
stations that can manage the device when connected via a router to the
Management port. The Static Route is applicable only when remote management
is enabled for both the Management and Data ports (i.e., when both Management
NOTE
It is highly recommended to use the Management port for local management only. Typically the port
should be down (disconnected).
CAUTION
Do not configure the IP Address of the Management port to 0.0.0.0, as this will cause loss of
management connectivity via the DATA port.
NOTE
The local subnet of the Management port (defined by the Management Port IP Address and
Management Port Subnet Mask parameters), must differ from the local subnet of the Data port
(defined by the Data Port IP Address and Data Port Subnet Mask parameters) and from the subnet
that is used as the Static Route for remote management via the Management port (defined by the
Management Port Dest Subnet and Management Port Dest Subnet Mask parameters).
