Configuring the Switch for Remote Management
Using the Service Port
or Network Interface
The service port is a dedicated for out-of-band management. In general, the service
port should be used to manage the switch for security reasons. Traffic on this port is
segregated from normal network traffic on other switch ports and cannot be
switched or routed to the operational network. Additionally, if the operational
network is experiencing problems, the service port still allows you to access the
switch’s management interface and troubleshoot network problems. Configuration
options on the service port are limited, which makes it difficult to accidentally cut
off management access to the switch.
Alternatively, the switch can be managed through the operational network, known
as in-band management. Because in-band management traffic is mixed in with
operational network traffic, it is subject to all of the filtering rules usually applied to
a standard network ports such as ACLs and VLAN tagging. In-band network
management can be accessed via a connection to any network port (1-32/54).
