Configure a VLAN and a Virtual Router to Use a Front Panel Port for Local
Management
About This Task
The 5320 Series does not have a dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band (OOB) management. Instead,
you can create and configure a VLAN and a virtual router in order to use a front panel port for local
switch management.
Log in to the management console, connect to the device, and follow these steps.
Procedure
1. Create a user virtual router (VR) using the following command:
For models 5320-48T-8XE and 5320-48P-8XE, use the following command:
create vr vr-name
For all other models, use the following command:
create vr vr-name local-only
create vr VR-mymgmt
2. Create a VLAN and connect the virtual router using the following command:
create vlan vlan-name vr vr-name
create vlan myvlan vr VR-mymgmt
3. Remove the port to use as the management port from the default virtual router (vr-default) using
the following command:
configure vr vr-default delete port port-number
configure vr vr-default delete port 12
4. Add the port to use as the management port to the virtual router using the following command:
configure vr vr-name add port port-number
configure vr vr-mymgmt add port 12
5. Add the port to use as the management port to the VLAN using the following command:
configure vlan-name add port port-number
configure myvlan add port 12
6. Configure the IP address and subnet mask length using the following command: configure
vlan-name ipaddress ipaddress/subnet-mask
configure myvlan ipaddress 10.69.8.100/24
7. Configure the default gateway (you must specify VR-Mgmt for the management port and VLAN
mgmt) using the following command:
configure vlan-name iproute add default ipaddress vr vr-name
configure iproute add default 10.69.8.1 vr vr-mymgmt
8. Enter save to save your configuration changes so that they will be in effect after the next system
reboot
