Editing the management port parameters
About this task
The management port on the CP module is a 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet port that you can use for
an out-of-band management connection to the switch.
If you use EDM to configure the static routes of the management port, you do not receive a warning
if you configure a non-natural mask. After you save the changes, the system deletes those static
routes after the next restart, possibly causing the loss of IP connectivity to the management port.
If you are uncertain whether the mask you configure is non-natural, use ACLI to configure static
routes.
Procedure
1. In the Device Physical View tab, select the management port.
2. In the navigation tree, open the following folders: Configuration > Edit.
3. Click Mgmt Port.
4. Click the General tab.
5. Modify the appropriate settings.
6. Click Apply.
