Element Manager (GUI) - An optionally available graphic interface installed on a workstation, and accessible over IP.

Refer to the InfiniBand User Guide, the CLI Reference Guide or the Chassis Manager User Guide for more information about managing the InfiniBand systems.

(Optional) Launch the Chassis Manager

Chassis Manager is a web-based GUI that can be used to manage a single InfiniBand chassis.

Prepare Your Device

To launch Chassis Manager on your Topspin 270, you must:

Configure an IP address on the Ethernet management port, if you have not already done so.

Configure an IP gateway on the Ethernet management port, if you have not already done so.

Optional. Enable Telnet services (should be enabled by default).

Optional. Enable HTTP or HTTPs services (HTTP should be enabled by default).

If you followed the previous steps, you should already have these items configured. If your device meets these requirements, proceed to “Launch Chassis Manager” on page 32. Otherwise, to prepare your device, perform the following steps:

NOTE: Consult your network administrator for an IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address before you begin this process.

1.If you have not yet configured an IP address for the Management port, refer to “Configure Basic Connectivity” on page 28.

2.Enter the telnet enable command in global config mode to start telnet services on your device. You may need to use the exit command to return to global config mode.

Example

Topspin-270> enable

Topspin-270# configure

Topspin-270(config)# telnet enable

3.Enter the ip http server command to enable HTTP services on your device. HTTPs is also supported.

Example

Topspin-270(config)# ip http server
