Updating the Management Module IP Addresses in a Redundant Management
Configuration (12800-180 and 12800-360)
Each management module must have a unique IP address that is different than the
chassis IP address of the switch. Therefore, a redundantly-managed switch will
have multiple unique IP addresses.The default IP addresses are:
12800-180
• Chassis: 192.168.100.9
• Management Module 211: 192.168.100.10
• Management Module 212: 192.168.100.11
12800-360
• Chassis: 192.168.100.9
• Management Module 227: 192.168.100.10
• Management Module 228: 192.168.100.11
It is necessary for each management module to have a unique IP address for the
following reasons:
• Unique IP addresses are used when sending syslog messages from a managed
spine to a syslog server.
• Gives the user the ability to ping each management spine separately.
• If the IP addresses are not unique, collisions will occur, causing IP operations to
fail.
To update the IP address on a management module, do the following:
1. Ensure that the module is connected to a COM port on a serial terminal device
via the RS-232 port (12200/12300) or DB-9 port (12800 series).
2. Get to a [boot]: prompt by following Step a or b.
a. If the management module is running, enter the following command at the
console:
reboot now
Then press Enter.
b. If the module is not running, power on the switch.
3. When the system displays image1 or image2, press the Spacebar to interrupt
the auto load sequence before the counter expires (within 5 seconds).
