Deployment Guide

• Enable the interface.
INTERFACE mode
no shutdown
• Congure a primary IP address and mask on the interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
The ip-address must be in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D) and the mask must be in slash format (/xx).
Add the keyword secondary if the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address.
Example of the show ip interface Command
You can only congure one primary IP address per interface. You can congure up to 255 secondary IP addresses on a single interface.
To view all interfaces to see with an IP address assigned, use the show ip interfaces brief command in EXEC mode as shown in
View Basic Interface Information.
To view IP information on an interface in Layer 3 mode, use the show ip interface command in EXEC Privilege mode.

Management Interfaces
The IOM management interface has both a public IP and private IP address on the internal fabric D interface.
The public IP address is exposed to the outside world for Web GUI congurations/WSMAN and other proprietary trac. You can statically
congure the public IP address or obtain the IP address dynamically using the dynamic host conguration protocol (DHCP).
NOTE
: When you shut down a management interface, connectivity to the interface’s private IP address is disabled.
You can access the full switch using:
• Internal RS-232 using the chassis management controller (CMC). Telnet into CMC and do a connect -b switch-id to get
console access to corresponding IOM.
• External serial port with a universal serial bus (USB) connector (front panel): connect using the IOM front panel USB serial line to get
console access (Labeled as USB B).
• Telnet/others using the public IP interface on the fabric D interface.
• CMC through the private IP interface on the fabric D interface.
The switch supports the management Ethernet interface as well as the standard interface on any front-end port. You can use either
method to connect to the system.
