S-Series Setup
S-Series Setup
To complete the installation, use SFTOS to configure the management connection on each S-Series
chassis that you want to manage from Node Manager.
Configuring SNMP
Node Manager communicates to each chassis by means of SNMP. This requires that you define an SNMP
community string.
Defining the S-Series Management IP Address
Follow the instructions in the Management chapter of the SFTOS Configuration Guide on configuring the
management IP address of an S-Series chassis for accessing it through an IP connection (such as through
Telnet). Briefly:
For more on S-Series management, see Managing the S-Series on page 85.
Command Syntax Command Mode Usage
snmp-server community name Global Config Enter the community string you wish to use for
Node Manager. Force10 suggests that you
use the same community string for all chassis.
If you have previously entered a string for
another SNMP manager and agent, use the
existing string.
Command Syntax Command Mode Usage
interface managementethernet Global Config Invoke the (Config-if-ma)# prompt.
ip address ipaddr subnetmask (Config-if-ma)# prompt Set the IP address and subnet mask of the
management interface.
management route default gateway Global Config Set the IP gateway of the management
interface.
Note: If you are managing an S50 running SFTOS 2.2 or earlier, use the network parms
command (Global Config mode) to set the management IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway.
