AB291A Fabric Clustering System Support Guide (12-port Switch), April 2004

HP 12-Port 4X Fabric Copper Switch Commands
Administrative Commands
Appendix B
271
Usage Guidelines:
The Management-InfiniBand IP and gateway addresses must be assigned before the virtual port may be used
to administer the the system chassis or be accessed by other hosts running IP or IPoIB. Hosts with
connectivity to management ports may manage the chassis using Telnet, SSH, or the Element Manager, if
they have access to the same subnet (some gateway functions are not supported by HP Fabric Clustering
System; Element Manager GUI is not supported in initial release of HP Fabric Clustering System).
The Management-InfiniBand port does not have to be specifically identified, like the ports of expansion
modules. This is because there is only one active Management-InfiniBand port on the chassis.
You must configure the Management-InfiniBand port through the serial-console terminal.
Examples:
HP-IB# configure
HP-IB(config)# interface mgmt-ib
HP-IB(config-if-mgmt-ib)# ip address 10.3.106.25 255.255.255.0
Defaults:
This command has no defaults.
