NOTE: For Ethernet switches, the in-band (VLAN1) and out-of-band management IP addresses
cannot be the same, or cannot be on the same network. This results in the out-of-band IP address
in being not set. See the IOM documentation for the default in-band management IP address.
NOTE: Do not configure I/O module network settings for Ethernet pass-through and Infiniband
switches.

Configuring Network Settings for IOM Using CMC Web Interface

To configure the network settings for I/O Module:
1. In the left pane, click Chassis Overview, click I/O Module Overview, and then click Setup.
Alternatively, to configure the network settings of the only available I/O module that is A, click A
Gigabit Ethernet, and then click Setup.
On the Configure I/O Module Network Settings page, type appropriate data, and then click Apply.
2. If allowed, type the root password, SNMP RO Community string, and Syslog Server IP Address for the
IOM. For more information about the field descriptions, see the Online Help.
NOTE: The IP address set on the IOM from CMC is not saved to the permanent startup
configuration of the switch. To permanently save the IP address configuration, you must run
the connect switch command, or racadm connect switch RACADM command, or use a
direct interface to the IOM GUI to save this address to the startup configuration file.
3. Click Apply.
The network settings are configured for the IOM.
NOTE: If allowed, you can reset the VLANs, network properties, and IO ports to its default
configuration values.

Configuring Network Settings for IOM Using RACADM

To configure the network settings for an IOM by using RACADM, set the date and time. See the deploy
command section in the Chassis Management Controller for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM Command Line
Reference Guide.
You can set the user name, password, and SNMP string for the IOM using the RACADM deploy command:
racadm deploy -m switch -u <username> -p <password>
racadm deploy -m switch -u -p <password> -v SNMPv2 <snmpCommunityString> ro
racadm deploy -a [server|switch] -u <username> -p <password>
Managing Power Control Operation for I/O Modules
For information to set the power control operation for I/O Module(s), see Executing Power Control
Operations on the IOM.
Enabling or Disabling LED Blinking for I/O Modules
For information to enable LED blinking for I/O Module(s), see Configuring LEDs to Identify Components
on the Chassis.
