Chapter 2 Configuring General Switch Features
Setting the LAN IP Addresses
Note If you used the bootChange command to enter a network mask for the first time, the new
network mask should be operable and visible using the dspipif command. If you are changing
the network mask, you must reset the active PXM to begin using the new network mask. For a
redundant PXM configuration, use the switchcc command to switch control to the standby PXM
and reset the formerly active card. For a standalone PXM configuration, use the resetcd
command to reset the standalone PXM.
Setting the Disk IP Address
A local LAN connection extends switch management to all workstations that have connectivity to the
LAN to which the switch is connected. Figure 2-5 shows the hardware required for a local LAN
connection to a PXM45 UI-S3 card. Figure 2-6 shows the hardware required for a local LAN connection
to a PXM1E UI-S3/B card.
Figure 2-5 Hardware Required for Local LAN Connections to PXM-UI-S3 Back Cards
Note The PXM-UI-S3 card shown in Figure 2-5 has two LAN ports. In the current release, only the LAN 1
connector is enabled for communications. Communication through the LAN 2 connector is disabled.
