console#config b. Use the following command to set the IP address to DHCP and return to Privileged Exec mode: Assigning DHCP for the management interface: Assigning DHCP for the OOB interface: NOTE: DHCP is enabled on the out-of-band interface by default. If this configuration has changed, follow these steps to enable DHCP on the interface; otherwise, skip to step 5. console(config)#interface out-of-band console(config-if)#ip address dhcp console(config-if)#exit console(config)#exit console# 5. Use the following command to set the default gateway (management interface): console(config)#ip default-gateway 10.254.24.162 6. 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 7. 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 8. Define a user name and password to allow privileged level 15 switch access for a remote user (HTTP and HTTPS). 98 Configuring Dell™ PowerConnect™
