Resilient IP Interface for Management Access
The stack functions as one integral system for management and
configuration purposes. You can therefore manage the stack through any
IP interface configured on the stack. The Master unit does not even have
to include an active port member in the VLAN interface used for
management access. However, if the unit to which you normally connect
for management access fails, and there are no active port members on the
other units within this VLAN interface, then this IP address will no longer
be available. To retain a constant IP address for management access across
fail over events, you should include port members on several units within
the primary VLAN used for stack management.
Basic Configuration
Console Connection
The CLI program provides two different command levels — normal
access level (Normal Exec) and privileged access level (Privileged Exec).
The commands available at the Normal Exec level are a limited subset of
those available at the Privileged Exec level and allow you to only display
information and use basic utilities. To fully configure the switch
parameters, you must access the CLI at the Privileged Exec level.
Access to both CLI levels are controlled by user names and passwords.
The switch has a default user name and password for each level. To log
into the CLI at the Privileged Exec level using the default user name and
password, perform these steps:
1. To initiate your console connection, press <Enter>. The “User Access
Verification” procedure starts.
2. At the Username prompt, enter “admin.”
