SwitchBlade x3106 Chassis Switch and AT-SBx31CFC960 Card Installation Guide
The second management access method is referred to as in-band
management. Here, the management card communicates with
your network from one of the ports on an Ethernet line card in the
chassis. If you select this management access method, you have
to identify the slot number of the Ethernet line card and the port
number from which the management card is to communicate with
your network. You may specify only one Ethernet line card and
port, but it can be any card or port in the chassis. You also have to
specify whether your management workstation uses tagged or
untagged VLAN packets.
Telnet status - The application lets you enable or disable the Telnet
server on the management card. You should enable the server if
you want to remotely manage the chassis with that application.
Note
If you disable Telnet, you can still manage the chassis using the
Console port or SNMP.
Note
You might still need to enable Telnet even if you do not intend to use
it because there are other network management applications, such
as AlliedWare NMS, that use Telnet to access the system.
SNMP Configuration - You may use the Easy Startup application to
specify an SNMP community string for remote SNMP
management. You may also specify the IP address of the
management station on your network from where you plan to
manage the chassis with SNMP. You may specify only one
community name and IP address.
Please review the following guidelines before running the application:
The application is performed through the NET MGMT port on the
active controller card in the chassis. If the chassis has two
controller cards, you can identify the active controller card by
examining the M/S LEDs. The LEDs are green on the active card
and amber on the standby card.
Your computer must have a JavaScript-capable web browser.
The controller card has the default address 192.168.1.1 and
subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
The Easy Startup application has a simple DHCP server that can
automatically assign your computer the IP address 192.168.1.2
and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 when you run the application.
Your computer has to have a DHCP client. If it does not have a
DHCP client, you have to manually set the IP address on your
computer prior to running the application.
