Using the management port
1
No packet received on a management port is sent to any in-band ports, and no packets
received on in-band ports are sent to a management port.
A management port is not part of any VLAN
Protocols are not supported on the management port.
Creating a management VLAN disables the management port on the device.
For PowerConnect B-Series FCX devices, all features that can be configured from the global
configuration mode can also be configured from the interface level of the management port.
Features that are configured through the management port take effect globally, not on the
management port itself.
For switches, any in-band port may be used for management purposes. A router sends Layer 3
packets using the MAC address of the port as the source MAC address.
For stacking devices, (for example, an PowerConnect B-Series FCX stack) each stack unit has one
out-of band management port. Only the management port on the Active Controller will actively send
and receive packets. If a new Active Controller is elected, the new Active Controller management
port will become the active management port. In this situation, the MAC address of the old Active
Controller and the MAC address of the new controller will be different.
CLI Commands for use with the management port
The following CLI commands can be used with a management port.
To display the current configuration, use the show running-config interface management
command.
Syntax: show running-config interface management <num>
PowerConnect(config-if-mgmt)#ip addr 10.44.9.64/24
PowerConnect(config)#show running-config interface management 1
