4. Enable DHCP on the management interface. a. Enter the config command at the console to enter the Configuration mode as follows: console#config b. Use the following command to set the IP address to DHCP and return to Privileged Exec mode: console(config)#ip address dhcp console(config)#exit 5. If the management station is a member of a remote network, and is not directly connected to the interface, configure a static route. The configured IP address must belong to the same subnet as one of the switch IP interfaces. In this example the static address is 192.168.20.100. console(config)#ip route 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.20.1 200 6. Ping the management station from the switch to ensure that connectivity has been achieved. Wait 30 seconds for the port to be in STP forwarding mode before pinging the management station. In this example, the Management station IP is 50.1.1.2. console>ping 50.1.1.2 64 bytes from 50.1.1.2: icmp_seq=1. time=0 ms 64 bytes from 50.1.1.2: icmp_seq=2. time=0 ms 64 bytes from 50.1.1.2: icmp_seq=3. time=0 ms 64 bytes from 50.1.1.2: icmp_seq=4. time=0 ms ----50.1.1.2 PING Statistics---- 4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip (ms) min/avg/max = 0/0/0 7. Define a user name and password to allow privileged level 15 switch access for a remote user (HTTP and HTTPS). In this example, the user name Dell, the password is Dell1234, and the privilege level is 15. Privilege levels range from 1-15, with 15 being the highest level. Level 15 access is the only level of access for the Web interface. console#config console(config)#username Dell password Dell1234 level 15 console(config)#ip http authentication local console(config)#ip https authentication local 112 Configuring Dell PowerConnect
