Accessing the Switch CLI through the Network Note: The telnet port number is 1223. The SSH port number is 1234. Remote management of the switch is available through the service port or through the management VLAN interface. To use telnet, SSH, or SNMP for switch management, the switch must be connected to the network, and you must know the IP or IPv6 address of the management interface. The switch has no IP address by default. The DHCP client on the service port is enabled, and the DHCP client on the management VLAN interface is disabled. After you configure or view network information, configure the authentication profile for telnet or SSH (see "Configuring and Applying Authentication Profiles") and physically and logically connect the switch to the network, you can manage and monitor the switch remotely. You can also continue to manage the switch through the terminal interface via the console port. NETGEAR M4500 Series Switches Software Administration Manual 33
