Operands

This command has the following operands:

inbandmgmt

Configures IP addresses and routes for the CP or GbE port inband
management interfaces. Inband management allows a management station
to communicate with the CP through GbE ports.

Valid options and arguments for inbandmgmt are:

ipaddrset cp | ge ip_address netmask

Configures the IP address and netmask for a CP or a GbE inband
management interface. This command requires specifying the type of
interface (cp or ge), an IPv4 address, and the subnet mask. For each
management interface, configure two IP addresses, one for the CP and one
for the GbE port.

ipaddrdel cp | ge ip_address

Deletes the IP address for a CP or GE inband management interface. Specify
the type of interface (cp or ge) and the IPv4 address to be deleted.

cp | ge

Specifies the interface type as either CP or port processor. This operand
is required when configuring or deleting an IP address.

ip_address

Specifies the IP address for the inband management interface. The IP
address must be in IPv4 format, followed by the subnet mask. IPv6
addresses are not supported. This operand is required with the ipaddrset
and ipaddrdel options.

netmask

Specifies the subnet mask for the IP address in a.b.c.d format. This
operand is required only with the ipaddrset option.

routeadd destination netmask [gateway]

Adds a route to the management station for an existing CP or GbE port (CP or
GbE designation is made automatically). You must specify the destination IP
address and the subnet mask when adding a management route. You must
create the IP addresses for the CP and the GbE port interfaces before you can
add a route to the routing table. Use portshow iproute to display existing
routes. Use portshow inbandmgmt to display the management interface
status and IP addresses.

routedel destination netmask

Deletes a management route from an internal CP or a GbE port interface. You
must specify the destination and the subnet mask when deleting a
management route.

destination

Specifies the destination for the route. This is the IP address of the
management station. This operand is required when adding or deleting a
route.

netmask

Specifies the subnet mask. This operand is required when adding or
deleting a route.

gateway

Specifies the gateway IP address. This operand is optional if the
destination is in the same subnet as one of the IP interface addresses. If
the destination is not part of the same subnet, you must specify a
gateway IP address.
