Next Steps - Dell PowerConnect 81 Serie Handbuch Zum Einstieg

Next Steps

After completing the initial configuration described in this section, you can
connect any of the front-panel switch ports to your production network for
in-band remote management.
If you specified DHCP for the OOB management interface IP address, the
interface will acquire its IP address from a DHCP server on the network. To
discover the dynamically-assigned IP address, use the console port connection
to issue the following command:
show ip interface out-of-band.
To access the Dell OpenManage Switch Administrator interface, enter the
OOB management interface IP address into the address field of a Web
browser. For remote management access to the CLI, enter the OOB
management interface IP address into a Telnet or SSH client. Alternatively,
you can continue to use the console port for local CLI access to the switch.
Your PowerConnect 81xx switch supports basic switching features such as
VLANs, 802.1X, RADIUS and TACACS+. For more information on the
features supported in Simple mode, see Simple Switch Mode: Port Aggregator
Feature White Paper.
If the switch is configured to operate in Normal mode, it can also support
features such as spanning tree protocol, as well as advanced Layer 3 features
such as dynamic routing and multicast. Use the web-based management
interface or the CLI to configure the features your network requires. For
information about how to configure the switch features, see the User's
Configuration Guide or CLI Reference Guide available on the support site
