Client A manages the Gigabit Ethernet switch module through the default
management-module configuration interface. The management module is
always enabled and always a member of VLAN 1. VLAN 1 can never be
disabled. You can always manage the Gigabit Ethernet switch module over this
interface, provided that the IP addresses of the client, the management module,
and the Gigabit Ethernet switch module are on the same subnet, as shown in
the following table.
Network entity IP address

Management module 192.168.70.125
