Out-of-band management

Out-of-band management allows IPv4 or IPv6 switch or stack management using the dedicated out-
of-band management port. Out-of-band management supports Telnet, Secure Shell (SSH) protocol,
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), HTTP, or HTTPS, without requiring an in-band
management VLAN.
To configure out-of-band management, you assign an IP address to the RJ-45 Ethernet
management port for a switch or stack. You can configure a specific out-of-band management
default gateway, which takes precedence over the in-band default gateway. If you do not configure
an out-of-band management default gateway, the in-band default gateway is used for out-of-band
switch or stack management.
