2. Assign a routing interface to the VLAN to act as the switch’s IP
address.
3. In situations where the remote management workstations are not
members of the same subnet as the switch, create a default gateway
that defines the first hop to reaching the workstations.
4. Designate the interface as the switch’s local interface so that the
switch monitors the subnet for the management packets from the
remote management workstations.
The following example assigns the IP address 149.124.22.4 and subnet
mask 255.255.255.0 to a stand-alone switch. The VLAN with the
management workstations will be called Group5A, have a VID of 5, and
consist of ports 11 to 14 on the switch. The IP configuration will include a
default gateway address of 149.124.22.11 to permit remote management
from workstations on subnets different than the switch.
1. This command creates the Group5A VLAN:
create vlan=Group5A vid=5 untaggedports=11-14
2. This command assigns a routing interface with the switch’s IP address
and subnet mask to the VLAN:
add ip interface=vlan5-0 ipaddress=149.124.22.4
mask=255.255.255.0
3. This command creates the default route:
add ip route=0.0.0.0 nexthop=149.124.22.11
4. This command designates interface VLAN5-0 as the local interface on
the switch:
set ip local interface=vlan5-0
5. This command saves the changes to the switch’s active boot
configuration file:
save configuration
The switch can now be managed remotely from any management
workstation in the 149.124.22.0 subnet in the Group5A VLAN or that has
access to the subnet through Layer 3 routing devices.
