Using the vSphere Client Console Tab
Use the vSphere client Console tab to change the engine IP address, Extreme

you can also use the Console tab to change basic network settings such as
engine hostname, SNMP configuration, and date and time settings, although
you should use NAC Manager to make these changes, if possible (see Using
NAC Manager).
