The management port is part of the mgmt VLAN. This VLAN membership

cannot be changed.

the following example.

configure vlan vlan_name ipaddress nn.nn.nn.nn 255.255.255.0

Your changes take effect immediately.

Enter save to save your conguration changes so that they will be in effect after the

next system reboot.

Note

For more information about saving conguration changes, see the

SwitchEngine 32.1 User Guide

The conguration is saved to the conguration database of the switch.

Change the Switch OS via the Bootloader Menu

Onboard your switch with ExtremeCloud™. Log in or create your XIQ administrator

account in order to select your switch operating system with XIQ at https://

extremecloudiq.com.

SwitchEngine is the default operating system for the Universal Hardware switch. You

can change the switch OS from the Bootloader menu on initial activation only by

completing the following steps:

1. Using a terminal emulator such as PuTTY or TeraTerm, connect to the switch using

the serial port connection.

Be sure that your serial connection is set properly:

• Baud rate: Baud rate: 115200

• Data bits: 8

• Stop bit: 1

2. Once the switch is powered on, after seeing the "Boot Menu" screen, press the

[spacebar] key within 30 seconds.

3. Use the down-arrow key to select Change the switch OS to Fabric Engine, then

select Enter.

The switch installs FabricEngine, then resets. Once the NOS is selected, the "Boot

Menu" will only wait for 3 seconds before continuing.

To change the switch OS if you take no action during the initial boot, see Change the

Switch OS via the Startup Menu on page 82.

Activate and Verify the Switch
