For you to manage the device by using the web-based configuration utility, the device 
management IP address must be defined and known. A management VLAN interface is 
created by default and it gets an IP address if a DHCP server is present. If it fails to get an IP 
address, a fallback address 169.254.100.100/255.255.0.0 is assigned to it. Management 
VLAN is used as the default source interface for syslog, message log, and SNMP client, and 
so on The network interface is disabled by default.

The management VLAN is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch 
through any of the switch’s front panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with 
the switch’s management VLAN do not affect the configuration of the front panel ports 
through which traffic is switched or routed.

To access the switch over a network, you must first configure it with IP information (IP 
address, subnet mask). You can configure the IP information using any of the following:

DHCP

Terminal interface through the EIA-232 port

After you establish in-band connectivity, you can change the IP information using any of the 

following:

Terminal interface through the EIA-232 port

Terminal interface through Telnet

SNMP-based management

Web-based management
