Assigning switch I/O modules an IP address

Switches A1 and A2 are accessed through the Chassis Management Controller(CMC). Before they can be accessed, each must be assigned an IP address. To assign an IP address:

Steps

  1. Log on to the CMC and go to Chassis Overview > I/O Module Overview > A1 Gigabit Ethernet (or A2).

  2. Click the Setup tab.

  3. For each of A1 and A2, uncheck DHCP Enabled, and enter an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway. The IP addresses must be unique.
  4. Click Apply. It takes a minute or 2 for the settings to be applied.
    Important: The GUI may initially indicate that the settings reverted to the previous values. Wait 2 or 3 minutes for the configuration action to complete and then refresh the page.

    To access a switch, go to Chassis Overview > I/O Module Overview and click the Launch IOM GUI button corresponding to the switch you want to access.
