Chapter 5: Configuring management IP
This chapter provides procedural information you can use to assign, clear, and view in-band and
out-of-band management IP addresses and gateway IP addresses.
Configuring an in-band management IP address
Use this procedure to configure the in-band management IPv4 address, subnet mask, and default
gateway for a switch or stack.
Important:
Changing or clearing the in-band management IP address or subnet mask disconnects any active IP
management connections.
About this task
You can dynamically change the in-band management IP address using Telnet, SSH, SNMP,
HTTP, and HTTPS.
Procedure
1. Enter Global Configuration mode:
enable
configure terminal
2. To assign or modify the in-band management IP address for a switch or stack, enter the
following at the command prompt:
ip address [switch | stack | unit <1–8>] <A.B.C.D> [netmask
<A.B.C.D>] [default-gateway <A.B.C.D>]
Note:
You configure the stack in-band management IP address on the stack base unit.
Important:
Only one management default gateway can operate for each unit or stack. The out-of-
band management default gateway takes precedence over the in-band management
