Configuring the I/O Modules

Before You Begin

Network Information

You can configure your I/O switch modules using:

• The CMC (see "Configuring a Switch Module Network Ethernet Port

Using the Web-Based Interface" on page 52).

NOTE:

The default IP address for the CMC is 192.168.0.120.

• The CMC CLI using serial console redirection.
• Direct access to the I/O module’s serial port (if supported).
• The I/O module’s default IP address (if supported).

Switch Modules

Configuring a Switch Module Network Ethernet Port Using the

Web-Based Interface

You can use the CMC Web-based interface to configure an I/O module’s

Ethernet port.

NOTE:

Use this procedure to configure the switch’s out-of-band Ethernet port. The

switch’s in-band management IP address is configured through the switch’s

external ports. These two IP addresses must be different, and on different

networks.

NOTE:

To change settings on the I/O module configuration page, you must have

Fabric Administrator privileges for the particular Fabric in which the module is

installed.

NOTE:

The network IP address set on the I/O module by the CMC is not saved to a

configuration file. To save the IP address configuration permanently, use the

connect switch-n

RACADM

command, or use a direct interface to the I/O

module GUI.

NOTE:

Do not attempt to configure I/O module network settings for Ethernet pass-

through or Infiniband switches.

1 Log in to the CMC’s Web-based interface. See "Logging in to the CMC

Using the Web-Based Interface" on page 31.

2 Select I/O Modules in the Chassis menu in the system tree.
