B.2 MANAGING THE SMARTSWITCH 6500
Your SmartSwitch 6500 must be IP reachable by the NMS before it can be managed. The default connection between
the SmartSwitch 6500 and the NMS is the SmartSwitch 6500 Ethernet interface. Use the
show switchconfig
command to find the IP address of the SmartSwitch 6500. An NMS can use this IP address to reach the SmartSwitch
6500 through Ethernet. An NMS can also manage the SmartSwitch 6500 through one of its ATM ports if the
SmartSwitch 6500 has a client connection into a VLAN or emulated LAN.
Note that the SmartSwitch 6500 itself, is not reachable through ATM until a client for the switch is created and
participates as a member of a VLAN or ELAN. Your NMS uses that switch client’s address to access and manage the
switch.
To create a client for the switch, use the add ipatmclient command for VLANs and add laneclient for emulated
LANs.
Use the set mynmaddr command to tell the SmartSwitch 6500 which interface to use when communicating with your
NMS. For detailed information about these commands, see the SmartSwitch 6500 Reference Manual.
