Configuring Console and Auxiliary Port Properties
You can monitor and manage the QFX5100 device using a dedicated management
channel. QFX5100 devices have a minimum of two management ports:
a 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 port and a 1-Gbps small form-factor pluggable (SFP) ports.
Some product SKUs have an additional 1-Gbps SFP port that can be used either for fiber
or copper connections. Use the management ports to connect the QFX5100 device to a
network for out-of-band management.
CAUTION: Configuring the two management interfaces within the same
subnet is not supported.
NOTE: You cannot use the management ports to perform the initial
configuration of the QFX5100 device. You must configure the management
ports before you can successfully connect to the QFX5100 switch using these
ports. See "Configuring a QFX5100 Device" on page
Ensure that you have an appropriate cable available. See
