3.3.2. Using the Service Port or Network Interface for Remote
Management
The service port is a dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band management. We recommend that you use the
service port to manage the switch. Traffic on this port is segregated from operational network traffic on the
switch ports and cannot be switched or routed to the operational network. Additionally, if the production
network is experiencing problems, the service port still allows you to access the switch management interface
and troubleshoot issues. Configuration options on the service port are limited, which makes it difficult to
accidentally cut off management access to the switch.
Alternatively, you can choose to manage the switch through the production network, which is known as in-band
management, because in-band management traffic is mixed in with production network traffic, it is subject to all
of the filtering rules usually applied on a switched/routed port such as ACLs and VLAN tagging. You can access
the in-band network management interface through a connection to any front-panel port.
