Before You Begin Network Information You can configure your I/O switch modules using: • The CMC (see "Configuring a Switch Module Network Ethernet Port Using the Web-Based Interface" on page 52). NOTE: The default IP address for the CMC is 192.168.0.120. • The CMC CLI using serial console redirection. • Direct access to the I/O module's serial port (if supported). • The I/O module's default IP address (if supported). Switch Modules 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 passthrough or Infiniband switches. 1 Log in to the CMC's Web-based interface.

Configuring the I/O Modules
Before You Begin
Network Information
You can configure your I/O switch modules using:
•
The CMC (see "Configuring a Switch Module Network Ethernet Port
Using the Web-Based Interface" on page 52).
NOTE:
The default IP address for the CMC is 192.168.0.120.
•
The CMC CLI using serial console redirection.
•
Direct access to the I/O module’s serial port (if supported).
•
The I/O module’s default IP address (if supported).
Switch Modules
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.
