3.3 Set Up your Switch Using Telnet Access

Once you have set an IP address for your Switch, you can use a Telnet program (in a VT-100 compatible
terminal mode) to access and control the Switch. Most of the screens are identical, whether accessed
from the console port or from a Telnet interface.

3.3.1 Accessing the Switch CLI Through the Network

Remote management of the switch is available through the service port or through the network interface.
To use telnet, SSH, SNMP for swith management, the switch must be connected to the network, and you
must know the IP or IPv6 address of the management interface. The switch has no IP address by
default. The DHCP client on the service port is enabled, and the DHCP client on the network interface is
disaled.

3.3.2 Using the Service Port or Netowrk Interface for Remote Management

The service port is a dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band management. We recommend that you use
the service port to manage the switch. Traffic on this port is segregated from operational network traffic
on the switch ports and cannot be switched or routed to the operational network. Additonally, if the
production network is experiencing problems, the service port still allows you to access the switch
management interface and troubleshoot issues. Configuration options on the service port are limited,
which makes it difficult to accidentally cut off management access to the switch.
Alternatively, you can choose to manage the switch through the production network, which is known as
in-band management, Bacuse in-nbad management traffic is mixed in with production netowork traffic, it
is subject to all of the filtering rules usually applied on a switched/routed port such as ACLs and VLAN
tagging. You can access the in-band network management interface through a connection to any
front-panel port.
3.3.2.1 Configuring Service Port Information
To disable DHCP/BootP and manually assign an IPv4 address, enter commands under Global
Configuration mode:
serviceport protocol none
serviceport ip ipaddress netmask
For example, serviceport ip 192.168.2.22 255.255.255.0
To disable DHCP/BootP and manually assign an IPv6 address, enter commands under Global
Configuration mode:
serviceport protocol none dhcp6
