I/O Modules—Switches

Configuring A Switch Module Network Ethernet Port Using The Web-Based Interface

You can use the CMC web-based interface to configure an I/O module’s Ethernet port.

NOTE: Use this procedure to configure the switch’s out-of-band Ethernet port. The switch’s in-band management IP address is configured through the switch’s external ports. These two IP addresses must be different, and on different networks.

NOTE: To change settings on the I/O module configuration page, you must have Fabric Administrator privileges for the particular Fabric in which the module is installed

NOTE: The network IP address set on the I/O module by the CMC is not saved to a configuration file. To save the IP address configuration permanently, use the connect switch-n RACADM command, or use a direct interface to the I/O module GUI.

NOTE: Do not attempt to configure I/O module network settings for Ethernet pass-through or Infiniband switches.

1.Log in to the CMC web-based interface.

2.Select I/O Modules in the Chassis menu in the system tree.

3.Select the Setup tab. The Configuring I/O Modules Network Settings page is displayed.

4.Configure the switch for integration into your network.

Select DHCP Mode Enabled if your network uses a DHCP server to assign IP addresses.

If your network uses static IP addressing, enter an IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

5.Click Apply.

6.Click the Deploy sub-tab.

After all I/O modules have been configured and connected, the enclosure’s blades can be inserted and booted with full network communication.

Mellanox M4001F/M4001Q Infiniband Switch I/O Module
