Configure Management Interfaces
The local browser interface includes separate options for interface and port-based IP
management. Port-based IP management disables VLAN-based (default/existing) IP
management once you configure the port-based IP management and vice versa.
The source interface for applications is set to VLAN 1 by default. Changes in IPv4
Management VLAN and port to a non-default value also sets the source interface to the
VLAN 1 default VLAN/port automatically.
Configure the IPv4 Service Port
You can configure network information on the IPv4 service port. The service port is a
dedicated Ethernet port for out-of-band management of the device. Traffic on this port is
segregated from operational network traffic on the switch ports and cannot be switched or
routed to the operational network.
To configure the IPv4 service port:
1. Launch a web browser.
2. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
The login window opens.
3. Enter the user name and password.
The default admin user name is
admin and the default admin password is blank, that is,
do not enter a password.
4. Click the Login button.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > Management Interfaces > IPv4 Service Port
Configuration.
