Hi,

I have a FAS 2050 which has been installed by a consultant. I'm reviewing the configuration (this is my first Netapp), and I'm surprise to see that he has used one of the Data ethernet port as a management port.

I'm pretty sure that I can use the port (with a wrench on top of it) as a managment port, I have been reading many ONTAP doc, and I'm confused.

Is this port (the one with the wrench) name e0m, or it is BMC,RLM or RMC ? Is there a command to determine what this port is ? and if I can use it a managment port ?

Thanks

Hi,

For using the Management port you simply need to run 'bmc setup' from your cli.

It will prompt for all the IP details you want it to have. It can be any other dedicated network also. It works like a ILO port in servers providing remote console connectivity over IP.

Regards
