6.2.2.1.3 Configuring Inband Administration Page
The network interface is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the IBP module
via any of the IBP's front panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the IBP's
network interface do not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through which traffic is
switched or routed.
To access the IBP module over a network you must first configure it with IP information (IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway). You can configure the IP information using any of
the following:
BOOTP
DHCP
Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
Once you have established in-band connectivity, you can change the IP information using any
of the following:
Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
Terminal interface via telnet
SNMP-based management
Web-based management
Configurable Data
IP Address - The IP address of the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
Subnet Mask - The IP subnet mask for the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
Default Gateway - The default gateway for the IP interface. The factory default value is
0.0.0.0
Network Configuration Protocol Current - Choose what the IBP module should do
following power-up: transmit a Bootp request, transmit a DHCP request, or do nothing
(none). The factory default is None.
You cannot make this choice for both the network configuration protocol and the service
port. You will only be given the choices for Bootp or DHCP here if the service port protocol
is configured to None.
Inband Administration VLAN ID - Specifies the inband administration VLAN ID of the IBP
module. It may be configured to any value in the range of 1 - 4094. The inband
administration VLAN is used for management of the IBP module. This field is configurable
for administrative users and read-only for other users.
Web Mode - Specify whether the IBP may be accessed from a Web browser. If you
choose to enable web mode you will be able to manage the IBP from a Web browser. The
factory default is enabled.
Java Mode - Enable or disable the java applet that displays a picture of the IBP module at
the top right of the screen. If you run the applet you will be able to click on the picture of the
IBP to select configuration screens instead of using the navigation tree at the left side of
the screen. The factory default is enabled.
Web Port - This field is used to set the HTTP Port Number. The value must be in the range
of 1 to 65535. Port 80 is the default value. The currently configured value is shown when
the web page is displayed.
Paticipation – This select field is used to set the interface to be grated or denied for
