• quick start VLAN

• in-band IP address and subnet mask

• default gateway

• management subnet mask, management IP address and management default gateway

• read-only and read-write community strings

• IPv6 in-band address and IPv6 default gateway

• management IPV6 address and management IPV6 default gateway

Enterprise Device Manager

Enterprise Device Manager (EDM) is an embedded graphical user interface (GUI) that you can use to manage and monitor the platform through a standard web browser. EDM is embedded in the switch software, and the switch operates as a web server, so you do not require additional client software. For more information about EDM, Using ACLI and EDM on Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 3500 Series, NN47203-102.

Enterprise Device Manager access

To access EDM, open http://<deviceip>/login.html or https://<deviceip>/ login.html from either Microsoft Internet Explorer (minimum version 8.x), or Mozilla Firefox

(minimum version 3.x).

Important:

You must enable the web server from ACLI to enable HTTP access to EDM. If you want HTTP access to the device, you must also disable the web server secure-only option. The web server

September 2016 Quick Start Configuration 10

Page 11

Enterprise Device Manager

secure-only option is enabled by default and allows HTTPS access to the device. Take the appropriate security precautions within the network if you use HTTP.

If you experience issues while connecting to EDM, check the proxy settings. Proxy settings can affect EDM connectivity to the switch. Clear the browser cache, and do not use a proxy when connecting to the device.

Default user name and password

The following table contains the default user name and password that you can use to log on to the switch using EDM. For more information about changing the passwords, see Configuring Security on Avaya Ethernet Routing Switch 3500 Series, NN47203-504.

EDM window

The EDM window contains the following parts:

1. navigation tree—the navigation pane on the left side of the window that displays available command folders in a tree format

2. menu bar—the area at the top of the window that displays primary and secondary tabs that you accessed during the session; the tabs remain available until you close them

3. toolbar—the area just below the menu bar that provides quick access to the most common operational commands such as Apply, Refresh, and Help

4. work area—the main area on the right side of the window that displays the dialog boxes where you view or configure switch parameters

Note:

Depending on your hardware model, information displayed may appear different than the figure shown in this section.

Figure 1: EDM window

Device Physical View

When you access EDM, the first panel in the work area displays a switch summary view. The tab behind the summary view is a real-time physical view of the front panel of a device or stack called the Device Physical View.

Objects in the Device Physical View are

• a stand-alone switch, called a unit

• a switch stack, called a chassis

• a port

From the Device Physical View you can

• determine the hardware operating status

• select a switch or a port to perform management tasks on specific objects or view fault, configuration, and performance information for specific objects

To select an object, click the object. The system outlines the object in yellow, indicating that the object selected.

The conventions on the device view are similar to the actual switch appearance except that LEDs in Device Physical View do not blink. The LEDs and the ports are color-coded to reflect hardware status. Green indicates the port is up and running; red indicates that the port is disabled.

From the menu bar you can click the Device Physical View tab to open the Device Physical View any time during a session.

Configuring the terminal

You can configure the switch terminal settings to suit your preferences for the terminal speed and display.

About this task

Use the following procedure to configure terminal settings including the terminal connection speed, and terminal display width and length, in number of characters.

Important:

After you modify the terminal configuration, the new settings are applied to the current active session and to all future sessions (serial, telnet or SSH). Terminal configuration change does not affect open concurrent sessions.

Procedure

1. Log on to ACLI to enter User EXEC mode.

2. At the command prompt, enter the following command:

terminal {speed <2400 | 4800 | 9600 | 19200 | 38400> | length <1– 132> | width <1–132>}

Example

The following example shows the output from the show terminal command.

Switch#show terminal Terminal speed: 9600 Terminal width: 79 Terminal length: 24

Variable definitions

The following table describes the parameters for the terminal command.

Variable Value

speed {2400|4800|9600|19200|38400} Sets the transmit and receive baud rates for the

terminal. You can set the speed to one of the five options shown.

DEFAULT: 9600

length <1–132> Sets the length of the terminal display in characters.

RANGE: 1 to 132

DEFAULT: 24

width <1–132> Sets the width of the terminal display in characters.

RANGE: 1 to 132

DEFAULT: 79

BootP automatic IP configuration and MAC address

The switch supports the Bootstrap protocol (BootP). You can use BootP to retrieve an ASCII configuration file name and configuration server address. With a properly configured BootP server, the switch automatically learns its assigned IP address, its subnet mask, and the IP address of the default router (default gateway).

The switch has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or MAC address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. Use this MAC address when you configure the network BootP server to recognize the switch BootP requests.

The BootP modes supported by the switch are:

• BootP or Last Address mode

• BootP or Default IP

• BootP Always

• BootP Disabled

September 2016 Quick Start Configuration 19

Comments on this document? [email protected]

Page 20

Connecting to the switch

Important:

Whenever the switch is broadcasting BootP requests, the BootP process eventually times out if a reply is not received. When the process times out, the BootP request mode automatically changes to BootP or Default IP mode. To restart the BootP process, change the BootP request mode to any of the following modes:

• Always

• Disabled

• Last

• Default-ip

Setting user access limits using ACLI

The administrator can use ACLI to limit user access by creating and maintaining passwords for web, telnet, and console access. This is a two-step process that requires that you first create the password and then enable it.

Setting the system user name and password using ACLI

Use the following procedure to configure the system user name and password for access through the serial console port and Telnet. This procedure supports only one read-only and one read-write user on the switch.

Procedure

1. Enter Global Configuration mode:

enable

configure terminal

2. At the command prompt, enter the following command:

username <username> <password> [<ro | rw>]

3. To set the username and password to the system default settings, enter the following command:

default username [<ro | rw>]

Note:

After you configure the user name and password with the username command, you can update the password without changing the username by using the cli password command, the console interface, or EDM.

Pinging an IP device

You can ping a device to test the connection between a switch and another network device. After you ping a device, the switch sends an Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) packet to the target device. If the device receives the packet, it sends a ping reply. After the switch receives the reply, a message appears that indicates traffic can reach the specified IP address. If the switch does not receive a reply, the message indicates the address does not respond.

Before you begin

The local IP address must be configured before issuing the ping command.

Procedure

1. Log on to ACLI to enter User EXEC mode.

2. At the command prompt, enter the following command:

ping <IP_address>

where <IP_address> is an IPv4 or IPv6 address.

Example

The following figure shows a sample ping response.
