RJ-45 Management Port (ETH0)

Caution. Do not plug a phone jack into any RJ-45 port. Doing so could damage
the switch. Use only twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connectors.

The switch controller’s 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX RJ-45 ETH0 port can be used
to establish a connection to a dedicated network management LAN. ETH0 is
not a switch port.

ETH0 has a default IP address of 192.168.242.242 and a mask of 255.255.255.0.
For instructions on changing the IP address, see the “Graphical User Interface”
section in the “Operations” chapter of the SwitchBlade Software Reference.

As a security precaution, change the default IP address as soon as possible.

If another device on your network already uses 192.168.242.242, do not connect
ETH0 to the network until you have changed its default address.

A twisted pair straight-through cable with RJ-45 connectors should be used
with ETH0. SeeTable 6 on page 41 list the cables described in this section.
“Useful Cables” on page 41
for more information on suitable cables to use with
ETH0.
