IP addressing
Users can configure the GbE2 Interconnect Switch to automatically obtain an IP address from a
bootstrap protocol (BOOTP) server or they can manually assign an IP address through the command
line console interface. Users can also assign an IP address from the BBI; however, they would have to
reconnect with the newly assigned IP address. For increased security, an administrator can specify the
line console interface. Users can also assign an IP address from the BBI; however, they would have to
reconnect with the newly assigned IP address. For increased security, an administrator can specify the
IP-based management network that is allowed to access the interconnect switch.
Web browser-based interface
Users can access the BBI by using Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator over a TCP/IP network.
Thus, access is possible via any external Ethernet switch port. When log-in is complete, the BBI
