Select
the
Network
Interfaces
choice
to
configure
the
two
management-module
Ethernet
interfaces:
external
(remote
management
and
console),
and
internal
(communication
with
the
I/O
modules).
You
can
also
select
this
choice
to
view
the
TCP
log.
Notes:
1.
When
you
use
the
management
module
Web
interface
to
update
an
I/O
module
configuration,
the
management
module
firmware
writes
its
settings
for
the
I/O
module
only
to
the
management
module
NVRAM;
it
does
not
write
its
settings
for
the
I/O
module
to
the
I/O
module
NVRAM.
If
the
I/O
module
restarts
when
the
management
module
is
not
able
to
apply
the
IP
address
it
has
in
NVRAM
for
the
I/O
module,
the
I/O
module
will
use
whatever
IP
address
it
has
in
its
own
NVRAM.
If
the
two
IP
addresses
are
not
the
same,
you
might
not
be
able
to
manage
the
I/O
module
any
more.
The
management
module
cannot
apply
the
I/O
module
IP
address
from
its
NVRAM
if:
v
The
management
module
is
restarting
v
The
management
module
has
failed
v
The
management
module
has
been
removed
from
the
chassis
You
must
use
the
Telnet
interface
to
log
into
the
I/O
module,
change
the
IP
address
to
match
the
one
you
assigned
through
the
management
module,
and
then
save
the
I/O
module
settings
in
the
Telnet
session
(Basic
Setup
Save
Changes).
2.
For
I/O
module
communication
with
a
remote
management
station,
such
as
the
IBM
Director
server,
through
the
management
module
external
Ethernet
port,
the
I/O
module
internal
network
interface
and
the
management
module
internal
and
external
interfaces
must
be
on
the
same
subnet.
v
External
Network
Interface
(eth0)
-
This
is
the
interface
for
the
remote
management
and
console
port.
Note:
If
you
plan
to
use
redundant
management
modules
and
want
both
to
use
the
same
external
IP
address,
disable
DHCP
and
configure
and
use
the
static
IP
address.
(The
IP
configuration
information
will
be
transferred
to
the
redundant
management
module
automatically
when
needed.)
Interface
-
The
status
(Enabled

You
need
to
configure
this
information
only
if
DHCP
is
disabled.
-
