Configuring a Second Management Interface
Configuring a Second Management Interface
Refer to Getting Started for instructions on configuring a system management interface on the Switch Processor
Input/Output (SPIO) card. This section provides described how to configure a second management interface.
Use the following example to configure a second management interface:
configure
context local
port ethernet slot#
Notes:
• For port ethernet slot#, use the actual chassis slot in which the SPIO is installed (slot number 24 or
• Enter IP addresses using IPv4 dotted-decimal or IPv6 colon-separated-hexadecimal notation.
• For port ethernet port#, use the physical port on the SPIO card that will be used. This is either port 1
• The SPIO is equipped with dual RJ-45 (copper) and dual SFP (optical fiber) interfaces. The RJ-45
• Option: In the Ethernet Port configuration mode, configure the port speed, if needed, by entering the
• In the { ip | ipv6 } route command, other keyword options, instead of the gateway IP address, are
Verifying and Saving Your Interface and Port Configuration
Verify that your interface configuration settings are correct by entering the following command:
show ip interface
The output from this command should be similar to that shown below. In this example an interface named
mgmt2 was configured in the local context.
