You also can configure in‐band management through any of the switch data ports.
To allow in‐band management, use the following procedure:
RS 8264CS> enable
RS 8264CS# configure terminal
RS 8264CS(config)# interface ip <IP interface number>
Interface 128 is reserved for out‐of‐band management (see "Using the
Note:
Switch Management Ports" on page
 IPv4:
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# ip address <management interface IPv4 address>
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# ip netmask <IPv4 subnet mask>
 IPv6:
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# ipv6 address <management interface IPv6 address>
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# ipv6 prefixlen <IPv6 prefix length>
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# vlan 1
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# enable
RS 8264CS(config-ip-if)# exit
 IPv4:
RS 8264CS(config)# ip gateway <gateway number> address <IPv4 address>
RS 8264CS(config)# ip gateway <gateway number> enable
 IPv6:
RS 8264CS(config)# ip gateway6 <gateway number> address <IPv6 address>
RS 8264CS(config)# ip gateway6 <gateway number> enable
Note: Gateway 1, 2, and 3 are used for in‐band data networks. Gateway 4 is
reserved for the out‐of‐band management port (see "Using the Switch
Management Ports" on page
Once you configure the IP address and have a network connection, you can use the
Telnet program from an external management station to access and control the
switch. Once the default gateway is enabled, the management station and your
switch do not need to be on the same IP subnet.
