 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 and displays the -> prompt, 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).
4. At the [boot]: prompt type the following:
moduleip <NEW IP ADDRESS>
Then press Enter.
5. At the [boot]: prompt enter reboot, and press Enter. Upon reboot the IP
address is changed. Repeat for the second Management Module.
NOTE:
For versions previous to 5.0.2, use the command spineip.
NOTE:
This command changes the IP address for image1 and image2 on each
module.
