Figure 19 shows all the PowerEdge MX networking IOMs in the MCM group. The REST
API endpoint is used for switch life cycle management from the OME-M console in Full

administrative tasks include:
• View IOM-specific alerts
• Power cycle the IOM
• Configure or change device management information
• Configure supported breakout port modes
• Configure port administrative states
• Configure MTU
• Toggle Auto Negotiation
• Update IOM firmware
