Figure 10-4 shows the basic configuration found in a Layer 2 interface. Note: Layer 3 (network) mode is not supported on Aggregator physical interfaces, port channels, and VLANs. Only management interfaces operate in Layer 3 mode.

Management Interfaces An Aggregator auto-configures with a DHCP-based IP address for in-band management on VLAN 1 and remote out-of-band (OOB) management. The IOM management interface has both a public IP and private IP address on the internal Fabric D interface. The public IP address is exposed to the outside world for WebGUI configurations/WSMAN and other proprietary traffic. You can statically configure the public IP address or obtain the IP address dynamically using the dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP). Accessing an Aggregator You can access the Aggregator using: • Internal RS-232 using the chassis management controller (CMC). Telnet into CMC and do a connect -b switch-id to get console access to corresponding IOM. • External serial port with a universal serial bus (USB) connector (front panel): connect using the IOM front panel USB serial line to get console access (Labeled as USB B). • Telnet/others using the public IP interface on the fabric D interface. • CMC through the private IP interface on the fabric D interface. 122 | Interfaces
