Out of Band Management port
The Out of Band Management port is the right-most RJ45 port on the rear panel. The port supports
10/100/1000 Ethernet connections. The Out of Band Management port is available for use when the
switch is running diagnostic or agent software. You can use the Out of Band Management port to
perform an emergency TFTP download of diagnostic or agent software to the switch. When you
perform a TFTP download, an IP address is temporarily assigned to the management port which
enables the switch to receive files from the TFTP server.
When the switch is running agent software, you can use the Out of Band Management port
configured with an out of band management IP and gateway for remote management. For more
information about Out of Band Management configuration, see Quick Start Configuration for Avaya
Ethernet Routing Switch 4900 and 5900 Series, NN47211-500.
USB port
The USB port is a Standard Type-A female USB 2.1 port. The switch provides USB host
functionality and can support USB flash drives.
