Administrator Guide

To enable and congure EIS, use the following commands:
1 Enter EIS mode.
CONFIGURATION mode
management egress-interface-selection
2 Congure which applications uses EIS.
EIS mode
application {all | application-type}
NOTE: If you congure SNMP as the management application for EIS and you add a default management route, when
you perform an SNMP walk and check the debugging logs for the source and destination IPs, the SNMP agent uses the
destination address of incoming SNMP packets as the source address for outgoing SNMP responses for security.
Management Interfaces
The system supports the Management Ethernet interface as well as the standard interface on any port. You can use either method to
connect to the system.
Conguring Management Interfaces
The dedicated Management interface provides management access to the system.
You can congure this interface using the CLI, but the conguration options on this interface are limited. You cannot congure Gateway
addresses and IP addresses if it appears in the main routing table of Dell Networking OS. In addition, proxy ARP is not supported on this
interface.
To congure a management interface, use the following commands.
• Enter the slot and the port (1) to congure a Management interface.
CONFIGURATION mode
interface managementethernet interface
The slot range is 1.
The port range is 1.
• Congure an IP address and mask on a Management interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask
• ip-address mask: enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). The mask must be in /prex format (/x).
Viewing Two Global IPv6 Addresses
Important Points to Remember — virtual-ip
You can congure two global IPv6 addresses on the system in EXEC Privilege mode. To view the addresses, use the show interface
managementethernet
command, as shown in the following example. If you try to congure a third IPv6 address, an error message
displays. If you enable auto-conguration, all IPv6 addresses on that management interface are auto-congured. The rst IPv6 address that
you congure on the management interface is the primary address. If deleted, you must re-add it; the secondary address is not promoted.
The following rules apply to having two IPv6 addresses on a management interface:
• IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be in the same subnet.
• IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces:
