Management Ethernet Configuration
address
Syntax [no] address ip-prefix/ip-prefix-length [active | standby]
Context bof
Description
This command assigns an IP address to the management Ethernet port on the active
CPM in the
running configuration and the Boot Option File (BOF) or the standby CPM for systems using
redundant CPMs. Deleting a BOF address entry is not allowed from a Telnet session.
Note that changing the active and standby addresses without reboot standby CPM may cause a boot-
env sync to fail.
An IPv4 address in the BOF is required when configuring an IPv6 address in this
same BOF for use on the management port.
The no form of the command deletes the IP address from the CPM Ethernet port.
Default no address — There are no IP addresses assigned to Ethernet ports.
Parameters ip-prefix/ip-prefix-length — The destination address of the aggregate route in dotted decimal notation.
Values ipv4-prefix a.b.c.d (host bits must be 0)
ipv4-prefix-length 0 — 32
ipv6-prefix x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x (eight 16-bit pieces)
x:x:x:x:x:x:d.d.d.d
x: [0 — FFFF]H
d: [0 — 255]D
ipv6-prefix-length 0 — 128
active | standby — Specifies which
CPM Ethernet address is being configured: the active CPM
Ethernet or the standby
CPM Ethernet.
Default active
autonegotiate
Syntax [no] autonegotiate [limited]
Context bof
Description This command enables speed and duplex autonegotiation on the management Ethernet port in the
running configuration and the Boot Option File (BOF).
When autonegotiation is enabled, the link attempts to automatically negotiate the link speed and
duplex parameters. If autonegotiation is enabled, then the configured duplex and speed parameters
are ignored.
