Out-of-Band Management (OOBM) Port

This RJ-45 port is used to connect a dedicated management network to the
switch.
To use: connect an RJ-45 network cable to the Management port to manage
an HP 5400R zl2 Switch through Telnet from a remote PC or a UNIX worksta-
tion.
To use this port, the switch must have an IP address. IP settings can be
configured through a Console port connection or automatically from a DHCP/
Bootp server.
A networked out-of-band connection through the Management port allows
you to manage data network switches from a physically and logically separate
management network.
For more information, see the "Network Out-of-Band Management (OOBM)"
appendix in the Management and Configuration Guide at: www.hp.com/
