Chapter 1: Overview
NET MGMT
Port
58
The NET MGMT port is used by the control card to perform the features in
Table 14. The control card uses the port to access your network to
communicate with network devices, such as TFTP servers and Telnet and
SSH client workstations.
An alternative to using the NET MGMT port is to configure the inband
interface on the control card. The inband interface allows the card to
communicate with your network over the backplane and line cards in the
chassis.
You may use either the NET MGMT port or inband interface to give the
control card access to your network, but you may not use both. For
instructions on how to configure the NET MGMT port and inband interface,
refer to the Software Reference for SwitchBlade x3100 Series Switches.
