Remote access

You can remotely access the OS10 command-line interface (CLI) and the Linux shell. When you install OS10 the rst time, connect to the

switch using the serial port.

Congure remote access

• Congure the Management port IP address

• Congure a default route to the Management port

• Congure a user name and password

Remote access OS10 CLI

1 Open an SSH session using the IP address of the device. You can also use PuTTY or a similar tool to access the device remotely.

ssh admin@ip-address

password: admin

2 Enter admin for both the default user name and password to log into OS10. You are automatically placed in EXEC mode.

OS10#

Remote access Linux shell

ssh linuxadmin@ip-address

password: linuxadmin

Congure Management IP address

To remotely access OS10, assign an IP address to the Management port.

1 Congure the management interface from CONFIGURATION mode.

interface mgmt node/slot/port

2 Congure an IPv4 or IPv6 address on the Management interface in INTERFACE mode.

ip address A.B.C.D/mask

ipv6 address A:B/prefix-length

3 Enable the Management interface in INTERFACE mode.

no shutdown

Congure Management interface

OS10(config)# interface mgmt 1/1/1

OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# ip address 10.1.1.10/24

OS10(conf-if-ma-1/1/1)# no shutdown

Management Route Conguration

WARNING

: Avoid conguring an IPv4 or IPv6 address and a static route for the management interface that conict with an IPv4

or IPv6 address and static route on a front-end port interface.

To set up remote access to OS10, congure a management route after you assign an IPv4 or IPv6 address to the Management port. The

default management route is the path used by a Management port to communicate with a dierent network. Management routes are

separate from IPv4 and IPv6 routes and are only used to manage the system through the Management port.

management route 192.168.100.0/24 1.1.1.1

ip route 192.168.100.0/24 2.2.2.2
