McDATA Eclipse 2640 SAN Router Installation and Service Manual
• At the command prompt enter:
set mgmt permroute <addr><mask><gateway>
where:
address = IP address of the network management subnet. This IP
address is used to add a static route to the SAN Router’s route
table. This is required by the management station if its on a
different subnet than the 10/100 interface.
mask = subnet mask of the network management subnet.
gateway = IP address of the gateway router. The gateway router
is a directly connected router to which management traffic should
be forwarded.
5. Save the configuration using the CLI:
• At the command prompt enter:
save
6. Reset the system using the CLI:
• At the command prompt enter:
reset system
The management IP address is now set and ready for normal
out-of-band management. If you choose to continue configuring the
SAN Router using CLI, please see the McDATA Enterprise Operating
System/Internetworking (E/OSi) Command Line Interface User Manual.
Task 7: Initiating the Element Manager
1. Connect the standard RJ45 Cat 5 Ethernet cable from the LAN to
the 10/100 management port (RJ45). See
Figure 2-2, on page 2-8.
• Wait for the SAN Router to come up (watch for the link LED to
light).
NOTE: The link LED is located next to the RJ45 connector. A steady light
means the port is active and a blinking light means there is traffic.
2. Ping the IP address you entered in Task 6 to verify network
connectivity using the network management host.
