I/O Modules—Switches
Configuring A Switch Module Network Ethernet Port Using The Web-Based
Interface
You can use the CMC web-based interface to configure an I/O module’s Ethernet port.
NOTE: Use this procedure to configure the switch’s out-of-band Ethernet port. The switch’s in-
band management IP address is configured through the switch’s external ports. These two IP
addresses must be different, and on different networks.
NOTE: To change settings on the I/O module configuration page, you must have Fabric
Administrator privileges for the particular Fabric in which the module is installed
NOTE: The network IP address set on the I/O module by the CMC is not saved to a configuration
file. To save the IP address configuration permanently, use the connect switch-n RACADM
command, or use a direct interface to the I/O module GUI.
NOTE: Do not attempt to configure I/O module network settings for Ethernet pass-through or
Infiniband switches.
1. Log in to the CMC web-based interface.
2. Select I/O Modules in the Chassis menu in the system tree.
3. Select the Setup tab. The Configuring I/O Modules Network Settings page is displayed.
4. Configure the switch for integration into your network.
Select DHCP Mode Enabled if your network uses a DHCP server to assign IP addresses.
If your network uses static IP addressing, enter an IP address, subnet mask and gateway.
5. Click Apply.
6. Click the Deploy sub-tab.
After all I/O modules have been configured and connected, the enclosure’s blades can be inserted and
booted with full network communication.
