Modify the converged network switch Ethernet management IP address
By default, the Ethernet management IP address for the converged network switch is configured as 10.77.77.77 with
a default Ethernet subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. The default gateway is 0.0.0.0.
Reset the IP address using one of the available methods, which store the IP address values on the switch module:
•
Blade server enclosure CMC graphical user interface (GUI).
•
Blade server enclosure CMC CLI.
•
Dell M8428-k command line interface (CLI).
After modifying the switch module's IP address and domain name (if the switch module is in full fabric mode), we
recommend that you cable all external ports to fabric connections before bringing the switch module online.

enables centralized management of the converged network switch.
Using the CMC GUI to set the IP address
