The Ethernet (network) interface provides management access, including direct access to the Fabric OS CLI, and allows other tools, such as Web Tools, to interact with the switch. You can continue to use a static Ethernet addressing system or allow the DHCP client to automatically acquire Ethernet addresses. Configure the Ethernet interface IP, subnet mask, and gateway addresses in one of the following manners: • "Setting static Ethernet addresses" on page 28 • "Activating DHCP" on page 29 When you change the Ethernet interface settings, open connections such as SSH or Telnet may be dropped. Reconnect using the new Ethernet IP information or change the Ethernet settings using a console session through the serial port to maintain your session through the change. You must connect through the serial port to set the Ethernet IP address if the Ethernet network interface is not configured already. Displaying the network interface settings If an IP address has not been assigned to the network interface (Ethernet), you must connect to the Fabric OS CLI using a console session on the serial port. Otherwise, connect using SSH. For more information, see "Using a console session on the serial port" on page 25. To display the network interface settings: 1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account assigned to the admin role. Fabric OS 6.1.1 administrator guide 27
