Configuring the Switch's IP Address for the Management VLAN
You can configure the switch's IP address for the management virtual LAN (VLAN).
Note
The management port is part of the mgmt VLAN. This VLAN membership cannot be changed.
Log in to the management console, connect to the switch, and follow these steps.
1. Assign a name, IP address, and default subnetwork mask for the VLAN as shown in the following
example.
configure vlan vlan_name ipaddress nn.nn.nn.nn 255.255.255.0
Your changes take eect immediately.
2. Enter save to save your configuration changes so that they will be in eect after the next system
reboot.
Note
For more information about saving configuration changes, see the ExtremeXOS 31.1 User
Guide.
The configuration is saved to the configuration database of the switch.
Changing the Switch OS via the Bootloader Menu
Extreme recommends onboarding your switch with ExtremeCloud™. Log in or create your XIQ
administrator account in order to select your switch operating system with XIQ at https://
extremecloudiq.com.
ExtremeXOS is the default operating system for the 5520 Series. You can change the switch OS from
the Bootloader menu on initial activation only by completing the following steps:
1. Using a terminal emulator such as PuTTY or TeraTerm, connect to the switch using the serial port
connection.
Be sure that your serial connection is set properly:
• Baud rate: Baud rate: 115200
• Data bits: 8
• Stop bit: 1
2. Once the switch is powered on, after seeing the "5520 Boot Menu" screen, press the [spacebar] key
within 30 seconds.
3. Use the down-arrow key to select Change the switch OS to VOSS, then select Enter.
The switch will install VOSS, then reset. Once the NOS is selected, the "5520 Boot Menu" will only wait
for 3 seconds before continuing.
To change the switch OS if you take no action during the initial boot, see Changing the Switch OS via
the Startup Menu on page 83
