Management Interfaces
An Aggregator auto-configures with a DHCP-based IP address for in-band management on VLAN 1 and remote out-of-band (OOB)
management.
The Aggregator 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 WebGUI configurations/WSMAN and other proprietary traffic. You can statically configure the public IP
address or obtain the IP address dynamically using the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP).
Accessing an Aggregator
You can access the Aggregator 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 the corresponding Aggregator.
• External serial port with a universal serial bus (USB) connector (front panel): connect using the Aggregator front panel USB serial line
to get console access (Labeled as USB B).
• Telnet/ssh using the public IP interface on the fabric D interface.
• CMC through the private IP interface on the fabric D interface.
The Aggregator 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.
Configuring a Management Interface
On the Aggregator, the dedicated management interface provides management access to the system.You can configure this interface
with Dell Networking OS, but the configuration options on this interface are limited. You cannot configure gateway addresses and IP
addresses if it appears in the main routing table of Dell Networking OS. In addition, the proxy address resolution protocol (ARP) is not
supported on this interface.
For additional management access, the Aggregator supports the default VLAN (VLAN 1) L3 interface in addition to the public fabric D
management interface. You can assign the IP address for the VLAN 1 default management interface using the setup wizard or through the
CLI.
If you do not configure the default VLAN 1 in the startup configuration using the wizard or CLI, by default, the VLAN 1 management
interface gets its IP address using DHCP.
To configure a management interface, use the following command in CONFIGURATION mode:
1 Enter the slot and the port (0). Slot range: 0-0.
