By default, the DHCP client on the service port is enabled. If your network has a DHCP server, then you need
only to connect the switch service port to your
management
network to allow the switch to acquire basic
network information.
2.2. Accessing the Switch CLI Through the Network
Remote
management
of the switch is available through the service port or through the management VLAN
interface. To use telnet, SSH, or SNMP for switch
management,
the switch must be
connected
to the network,
and you must know the IP or IPv6 address of the management interface. The switch has no IP address by
default. The DHCP client on the service port is enabled, and the DHCP client on the management VLAN
interface is disabled.
After you configure or view network information, configure the authentication profile for telnet or SSH (see
“Configuring and Applying Authentication Profiles”) and physically and logically connect the switch to the
network, you can manage and monitor the switch remotely. You can also continue to manage the switch
through the terminal interface via the console port.
2.2.1. Using the Service Port or Management VLAN Interface for Remote Management
The service port is a
dedicated
Ethernet port for
out-of-band management. We recommend
that you use the
service port to manage the switch. Traffic on this port is segregated from operational network traffic on the
switch ports and cannot be switched or routed to the operational network. Additionally, if the production
network is experiencing problems, the service port still allows you to access the switch management
interface and troubleshoot issues. Configuration options on the service port are limited, which makes it
difficult to accidentally cut off management access to the switch.
