G8264 Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
Once you configure a management IP address for your switch, you can connect to
a management port and use the Telnet program from an external management
station to access and control the switch. The management port provides out‐of‐band
management.
You also can configure in‐band management through any of the switch data ports.
To allow in‐band management, use the following procedure:
RS G8264> enable
RS G8264# configure terminal
RS G8264(config)# interface ip <IP interface number>
Note: Interface 128 is reserved for out‐of‐band management (see "Using the
Switch Management Ports" on page
IPv4:

RS G8264(config­ip­if)# ip address <management interface IPv4 address>
RS G8264(config­ip­if)# ip netmask <IPv4 subnet mask>
IPv6:

RS G8264(config­ip­if)# ipv6 address <management interface IPv6 address>
RS G8264(config­ip­if)# ipv6 prefixlen <IPv6 prefix length>
RS G8264(config­ip­if)# vlan 1
RS G8264(config­ip­if)# enable
RS G8264(config­ip­if)# exit
 IPv4:
RS G8264(config)# ip gateway <gateway number> address <IPv4 address>
RS G8264(config)# ip gateway <gateway number> enable
 IPv6:
RS G8264(config)# ip gateway6 <gateway number> address <IPv6 address>
RS G8264(config)# ip gateway6 <gateway number> enable
Note: Gateway 1, 2, and 3 are used for in‐band data networks. Gateway 4 is
reserved for the out‐of‐band management port (see "Using the Switch
Management Ports" on page
