2. Switch ManagementTo set up the Managed Switch, the user needs to configure the Managed Switchfornetworkmanagement.TheManagedSwitchprovidestwomanagementoptions:Out-of-Band ManagementandIn-Band Management.

Out-of-Band ManagementOut-of-band management is the management through Console interface.Generally, the user will use out-of-band management for the initial switch configuration,orwhenin-bandmanagementisnotavailable.

Important

The Managed Switch is shipped without IP address assigned bydefault.UsermustassignanIPaddresstotheManagedSwitchviathe Console interface to be able to remotely access the ManagedSwitch through Telnet or HTTP.

In-Band ManagementIn-band management refers to the management by logging in to the ManagedSwitchusingTelnetorHTTP,orusingSNMPmanagementsoftwaretoconfiguretheManaged Switch. In-bandmanagement enables themanagement of theManagedSwitchtoattachsomedevicestotheSwitch.ThefollowingproceduresarerequiredtoenableIn-bandmanagement:

1. Logon to console

2.Assign/ConfigureIPaddress

3. Create a remote login account

4.EnableHTTPorTelnetserverontheManagedSwitch

In case in-bandmanagement fails due to Managed Switch configuration changes,out-of-bandmanagement canbeused for configuringandmanaging theManagedSwitch.

5. Logon to the ConsoleOnce the terminal is connected to thedevice,poweron theManagedSwitch,andtheterminalwilldisplay“running testing procedures”.

Then, the following message asks for the login user name and password. Thefactory default user name and password are as follows as the login screen inFigure5-1appears.

Username:admin

Password:admin

6.ConfiguringIPAddressThe IP address configuration commands for VLAN1 interface are listed below.Before using in-bandmanagement, the Managed Switchmust be configured withan IP address by out-of-bandmanagement (i.e. consolemode). The configurationcommandsareasfollows:

SGS-6340-48T4S#configSGS-6340-48T4S(config)# interface vlan 1SGS-6340-48T4S(config-if-Vlan1)#ip address 192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0

ThepreviouscommandwouldapplythefollowsettingsfortheManagedSwitch.

IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.254Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

Figure 6-1 Configuring IPv4 Address Screen

To check the current IP address or modify a new IP address for the ManagedSwitch,pleaseusetheproceduresasfollows:

Show the current IP address1.On “SGS-6340-48T4S#” prompt, enter “show ip interface brief”.

7.Setting100BASE-FXforSFPPort(SGS-6340-20S4C4XOnly)

The Managed Switch supports both 1000BASE-X and 100BASE-FX SFPtransceiverbymanual settingand thedefaultSFPport speed is set to1000Mbps.To establish the fiber connection with 100BASE-FX SFP transceiver, the followingcommandconfigurationisrequired:

SGS-6340-20S4C4X#config

SGS-6340-20S4C4X(config)#interface ethernet 1/0/1-20

SGS-6340-20S4C4X(config-if-port-range)#speed-duplex force100-fx
