You can manage 4000 Series switches using Bluetooth with mobile devices or laptops. Bluetooth is enabled by default.
Switch: 4000 Series switches.
Adapters: Dongles with a common Bluetooth controller (Cypress CY20702). Vendors with CY20702 pluggable and CC&C (USB-BT-400). 4000 Series switches also support the Extreme Networks Bluetooth 5.0 dongle (XN-USB-BT500-ADAPTER).
Bluetooth users/clients can access switches using either the global IP address or link local IP address. The Bluetooth interface is assigned with the global IP address (192.168.1.1/24 or 172.16.1.1/24). DHCP server runs on the Bluetooth interface. This is mainly to serve Bluetooth clients with DHCP support. After a Bluetooth connection is established, all Bluetooth clients are allocated IP addresses from this pool (192.168.1.2–192.168.1.20 or 172.16.1.1–172.16.1.20). For Bluetooth clients that do not support DHCP, you can use the link local IP address for accessing the switch. Range is 169.254.1.1–169.254.1.8.
enable switch bluetooth {discovery | pairing }
You can check Bluetooth status using the show switch bluetooth [statistics | inventory] command.
