122 Using the CMC Web Interface
Configuring CMC Network Properties
NOTE: Network configuration changes can result in the loss of connectivity on
current network login.
Setting Up Initial Access to the CMC
Before you begin configuring the CMC, you must first configure the CMC
network settings to allow the CMC to be managed remotely. This initial
configuration assigns the TCP/IP networking parameters that enable access
to the CMC.
NOTE: You must have Chassis Configuration Administrator privilege to set up CMC
network settings.

Configuring the Network LAN Settings
NOTE: To perform the following steps, you must have Chassis Configuration
Administrator privilege.
NOTE: The settings on the Network Configuration page, such as community string
and SMTP server IP address, affect both the CMC and the external settings of the
chassis.
NOTE: If you have two CMCs (primary and standby) on the chassis, and they are
both connected to the network, the standby CMC automatically assumes the
network settings in the event of failover of the primary CMC.
