In-band and Out-of-band Management – NAT
The simplest and the most recommended solution is a combination of in-band and out-of-band
management. This solution permits access from one or both sides of the link via Gigabit
ETHERNET port and also from Fast ETHERNET port (beware of and avoid possible loop on
Ethernet).
The remote device can be managed via In-band management and Out-of-Band management.
In In-band management, the management traffic flows with the regular wireless user traffic. For
example, direct access of the remote device by using remote device's direct IP address.
In out-of-band management, the management traffic will flow in a separate RFI channel and not
as part of regular user traffic. For configuring the out-of-band management, you need to
configure to access the remote device access on ports defined in NAT rules in the local device.
The following figure illustrates the connection of individual management ports in the IDUs along
with the method to configure IP settings of both the IDUs.
