Configure the BMC Management Interface IP Address

Keep the IPv4 address, the Netmask, and the Gateway IPv4 address that is required to be configured, ready.

Note

SLX-OS configures the following static IP 192.168.11.1/24 and default gateway 0.0.0.0 by default.

To configure the BMC Management Interface:

Navigate into the BMC Management Interface context.
```
SLX # configure terminal
SLX (config)# bmc
SLX (config-bmc)# 
```
Note

Only the BMC Management Interface with interface ID of 0 can be configured.

You are now within the BMC configuration mode.
From within the BMC configuration mode, navigate into the BMC Management Interface configuration mode.
```
SLX (config-bmc)# interface management 0
SLX (config-bmc-mgmt-0)# 
```
You are now within the BMC Management Interface configuration mode.
Configure the IPv4 address for the BMC Management Interface.
- To configure the BMC Management Interface to receive the IPv4 address from a remote DHCP server, use the following command.
```
SLX (config-bmc-mgmt-0)# ip dhcp
SLX (config-bmc-mgmt-0)# 
```
- To configure the BMC Management Interface's IPv4 address manually, execute the following command:
```
SLX (config-bmc-mgmt-0)# ip address 10.9.9.23/24 gw 10.9.9.2
SLX (config-bmc-mgmt-0)# 
```
The IPv4 address for the BMC Management Interface is either automatically assigned or manually configured.

Optional: Verify by issuing the do show bmc interface management 0 ip command.

SLX (config-bmc)# do show bmc interface management 0 ip
