the network before the SAN Router is managed by SANvergence
Manager. If you do not choose to set the 10/100 Management Port IP
Address now (with the CLI) you can do so from the Element
Manager later.
Changes made to the management port IP address will take effect
only after a SAN Router reset (CLI command reset system or Element
Manager File\Reset System).
The management port IP address is not affected by resetting the SAN
Router to defaults. The management port IP address and its
parameters (permanent route) remain the same until you actively
change it using either the CLI or the Element Manager.
The 10/100 Ethernet Out-of-Band Management port provides for
out-of-band IP-based management. This interface allows simple
network management protocol (SNMP), Telnet, and web-based
management traffic to be separated from storage traffic through use
of a separate LAN. The IP address of the management port must be in
a different subnet than the SAN Router Inband IP address.
Set the management IP address using the CLI:
1. Press the Enter key to display the CLI prompt.
2. Logon to the SAN Router. Type modify at the Access Mode
prompt and private at the Password (community string) prompt.
3. Set or change management port IP address using the CLI:
• At the command prompt enter:
set mgmt portaddr <IP address><subnet mask>
where:
IP address = IP address of the management port
subnet mask = subnet mask of the management port (optional)
4. Set a permanent route to the network management station.
• At the command prompt enter:
set mgmt permroute <addr><mask><gateway>
where:
address = IP address of the network management subnet. This IP
address is used to add a static route to the SAN Router's route
table. This is required by the management station if its on a
different subnet than the 10/100 interface.
