By default, the aggregator receives IP addresses from a DHCP server in the network. If you want to
change the DHCP default setting, obtain the required information from your network administrator, such
as:
•
The IP address and subnet mask of the out-of-band (OOB) interface used for remote management via
Telnet, SNMP, or other management agents.
•
The IP address and subnet mask of the default virtual local area network (VLAN) IP address used for
in-band management.
•
The IP address of the default gateway used for IP access to the aggregator.
Reconfiguration Using the CMC Interface
For information about how to access the CMC to configure the aggregator, refer to the Dell Chassis
Management Controller (CMC) User's Guide on the Dell Support website at http://support.dell.com/
support/edocs/systems/pem/en/index.htm. The CMC online help provides information about how to use
the Web interface. You can change many of the default settings using the CMC interface as described in
the following CLI reconfiguration procedure.

3.
At the configuration mode prompt, enter the hostname name command to configure a hostname
for the aggregator, where name is a text string of up to 20 alphanumeric characters:

Host names must start with a letter and end with a letter or number. Characters within the string can
be letters, numbers, and hyphens.
