IP Addressing Commands Dell EMC Networking N1100-ON/N1500/N2000/N2100-ON/N2200ON/N3000-ON/N3100-ON/N3200-ON Series Switches Interfaces on the Dell EMC Networking switches support a variety of capabilities to support management of the switch. In addition to performing switching and routing of network traffic, Dell EMC Networking switches act as a host for management of the switch. Commands in this category allow the network operator to configure the local host address, utilize the embedded DHCP client to obtain an address, resolve names to addresses using DNS servers, and detect address conflicts on the local subnet. There are two management interface types on Dell EMC Networking switches. In-band interfaces allow management of the switch through the network switching/routing interfaces. Out-of-band management is always through the dedicated out-of-band interface. The serial port on the management unit in the stack provides a direct console interface supporting a CLI. In-band management interfaces can employ a variety of protection mechanisms including VLAN assignment and Management ACLs. The outof-band port does not support such protection mechanisms and, therefore, it is recommended that the out-of-band interface only be connected to a physically separated management network. clear host Use the clear host command to delete entries from the host name-to-address cache.
