Management Route Configuration WARNING: Avoid configuring an IPv4 or IPv6 address and a static route for the management interface that conflict with an IPv4 or IPv6 address and static route on a front-end port interface. To set up remote access to OS10, configure a management route after you assign an IPv4 or IPv6 address to the Management port. The default management route is the path used by a Management port to communicate with a different network. Management routes are separate from IPv4 and IPv6 routes and are only used to manage the system through the Management port. management route 192.168.100.0/24 1.1.1.1 ip route 192.168.100.0/24 2.2.2.2 management route 192.168.200.0/24 managementethernet ip route 192.168.200.0/24 interface ethernet 1/1/1 Before configuring the static IPv4 address for management interface port, remove the dynamic DHCP setting using the no ip address dhcp command. Configure a management route to the network from which you access the system in CONFIGURATION mode. Repeat the command to configure multiple routes for the Management interface. management route {ipv4-address/mask | ipv6-address/prefix-length} {forwarding-router-address | managementethernet} • ipv4-address/mask - Enter an IPv4 network address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D), then a subnet mask in /prefix-length format (/xx). • ipv6-address/prefix-length - Enter an IPv6 address in x:x:x:x::x format with the prefix length in /x format (prefix range is /0 to /128). • forwarding-router-address - Enter the next-hop IPv4/IPv6 address of a forwarding router for network traffic from the Management port. • managementethernet - Configures the Management port as the interface for the route, and forces the route to be associated with the Management interface. Configure management route OS10(config)# management route 10.10.20.0/24 10.1.1.1 OS10(config)# management route 172.16.0.0/16 managementethernet Configure user name and password To set up remote access to OS10, create a new user name and password after you configure the management port and default route. The user role is a mandatory entry. Enter the password in clear text. It is converted to SHA-512 format in the running configuration. A password must have at least nine alphanumeric and special characters, and at least five different characters from the password previously used for the same username. For backward compatibility with OS10 releases 10.3.1E and earlier, passwords entered in MD-5, SHA-256, and SHA-512 format are supported. To increase the required password strength, use the password-attributes command. • Create a user name and password in CONFIGURATION mode. username username password password role role - username username - Enter a text string (up to 32 alphanumeric characters; 1 character minimum). - password password - Enter a text string (up to 32 alphanumeric characters; 9 characters minimum). - role role - Enter a user role: 28 Getting Started
