Startup Procedure for Inband Management

With inband management, the BitStorm 4800 Express is managed using the uplink port.

Procedure

To start up the BitStorm 4800 Express using inband management:

1.To avoid losing your connection when the IP address is changed, access the CLI using the CONSOLE port.

2.Assign an IP address, netmask, and next-hop router using the configure management command. For example:

PDYN# configure management inband address 137.90.127.3 255.255.255.0

PDYN# configure management default-gateway 137.90.127.1

Do not configure inband and out-of-band management on the same subnet.

Startup Procedure for Out-of-Band Management

In out-of-band management, you manage the unit through Port 1.

Procedure

To start up the BitStorm 4800 Express using out-of-band management:

1.To avoid losing your connection when the IP address is changed, access the CLI using the CONSOLE port.

2.Assign an IP address, netmask, and next-hop router using the configure management command. For example:

PDYN# configure management out-of-band address 137.90.80.3 255.255.255.0

PDYN# configure management default-gateway 137.90.80.1

You can now access the web interface by typing into the Location field of your web browser the IP address assigned to the Port 1. See Using the Web Interface on page 4-6.

Do not configure inband and out-of-band management on the same subnet.

3.Configure routers as necessary to route data from the NOC to the BitStorm 4800 Express.
