Activating a Port Group Monitor Policy

To activate a port group monitor policy, follow these steps:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
Step 1	switch# config t	Enters configuration mode.
Step 2
Step 2	switch(config)# port-group-monitor activate	Activates the specified port group monitor
	policyname	policy.

	switch(config)# port-group-monitor activate	Activates the default port group monitor policy.

	switch(config)# no port-group-monitor	Deactivates the specified port group monitor
	activate policyname	policy.

Configuring Management Interfaces

Detailed Steps

To configure the mgmt0 Ethernet interface to connect over IPv4, follow these steps:

	Command	Purpose
Step 1
	switch# config terminal	Enters configuration mode.
	switch(config)#
Step 2
	switch(config)# interface mgmt0	Selects the management Ethernet interface on the
	switch(config-if)#	switch and enters interface configuration submode.
Step 3
	switch(config-if)#ip address 10.16.1.2	Configures the IPv4 address and IPv4 subnet mask.
	255.255.255.0
Step 4
	switch(config-if)# no shutdown	Enables the interface.
Step 5
	switch(config-if)# exit	Returns to configuration mode.
	switch(config)#
Step 6
	switch(config)# ip default-gateway 1.1.1.4	Configures the default gateway IPv4 address.
Step 7
	switch(config)# exit	Returns to EXEC mode.
	switch#
Step 8
	switch# copy running-config startup-config	(Optional) Saves your configuration changes to the
		file system.
		Note	If you want to save your configuration, you
			can enter this command at any time.
