Most of the 5320 Series models do not have a dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band
(OOB) management. Instead, you can create and configure a VLAN and a virtual router
in order to use a front panel port for local switch management.
Note
Models
5320-24T-4X-XT and
5320-24T-24S-4XE-XT have a
dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band (OOB) management.
Log in to the management console, connect to the device, and follow these steps.
-
Create a user virtual router
(VR) using the following command:
For models 5320-48T-8XE and
5320-48P-8XE, use the following
command:
create vr vr-name
For
all other models, use the following command:
create vr vr-name local-only
create vr
VR-mymgmt
-
Create a VLAN and connect the
virtual router using the following command:
create vlan vlan-name vr
vr-name
create vlan myvlan vr VR-mymgmt
-
Remove the port to use as the management port from the default virtual router
(vr-default) using the following command:
configure vr vr-default delete port
port-number
configure vr vr-default delete port 12
-
Add the port to use as the management port to the virtual router using the
following command:
configure vr vr-name add port
port-number
configure vr vr-mymgmt add port 12
-
Add the port to use as the management port to the VLAN using the following
command:
configure vlan-name add port
port-number
configure myvlan add port 12
-
Configure the IP address and
subnet mask length using the following command:
configure vlan-name
ipaddress ipaddress/subnet-mask
configure myvlan ipaddress
10.69.8.100/24
-
Configure the default gateway (you must specify VR-Mgmt for the management port
and VLAN mgmt) using the following command:
configure vlan-name iproute add default
ipaddress vr
vr-name
configure iproute add default 10.69.8.1 vr
vr-mymgmt
-
Enter save to save your configuration changes so that
they will be in effect after the next system reboot
