Intel IXM5414E - Manual (Page 31)

Intel® Blade Server Ethernet Switch Module IXM5414E 21
(CLI) (see Chapter 7 “Command Line Interface Management” on page 155 for detailed information).
Both interfaces provide access to the same switch information and control parameters.
In addition, you can access an extensive set of both standard and private MIB objects through SNMP
protocols.
IP addresses and SNMP community names
Each switch module must be assigned its own Internet protocol (IP) address, which is used for
communication with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) network manager or other
transmission control protocol/Internet protocol (TCP/IP) application. The switch module default IP
address is 10.90.90.9x, where x depends on the number of the I/O module bay into which you have
installed the switch module, as shown in Table 1.
The following illustration shows the I/O module bay locations.
You can change the default switch module IP address to meet the requirements of your networking
address scheme.
The switch module also has a unique, factory-assigned media access control (MAC) address. The
switch module MAC address is located on one side of the switch module, on the same label as the serial
number, as shown in the following illustration.
/ NOTE
The MAC address is also located on a separate label on the information panel under the external
Ethernet port connectors.
