SSH and Web management acces of switch from LAN

SSH and Web management acces of switch from LAN

Hi there,

I'm new to ExtremeOS, im trying to setup SSH and Web management of an X450a-24t.
I have given the mgmt vlan an ip address.
And i have created a new vlan, vlan 4094 (ManagementVLAN) an ipaddress.
But i cant access either from the lan.

Can help with a step by step guide on how to configure this correctly?

Here is a screen grab of my vlan config.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name VID Protocol Addr Flags Proto Ports Virtual
Active router
/Total
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Default 1 --------------------------------T------------ ANY 0 /26 VR-Default
ManagementVLAN 4094 --------------------------------------------- ANY 0 /0 VR-Default
Mgmt 4095 192.168.155.4 /16 ------------------------- ANY 1 /1 VR-Mgmt
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Many thanks,

Peter

im still struggling with this.
When I untag and add a port into the managemenvlan the i can access the SSH and web management of the switch.

What i amtrying to do is be able to managethe switch from another vlan.

i have created a data vlan now, added ip's to the all the vlans, added all the ports as untagged to data vlan now. I have a static ip address set on the pc, 192.168.155.10/16 no gateway.

Here is the VLAn info:-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Data 100 192.168.155.4 /16 -f----------------------- ANY 1 /26 VR-Default
Default 1 10.10.30.10 /24 -f----------------------- ANY 0 /0 VR-Default
ManagementVLAN 99 10.10.20.10 /24 -f----------------------- ANY 0 /0 VR-Default
Mgmt 4095 10.10.10.10 /24 ------------------------- ANY 0 /1 VR-Mgmt
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I can ping and get a response from the 192.168.155.4 ip address.

i have enabled ip forwarding on all vlans but i still cant manage the switch for the data lan.

Can you give me a clue as to where i am going wrong?

Many thanks.

A PC typically can't pass tagged traffic. Try changing it to untagged and see if it starts working.

Hi there,

Thanks for your replies.

I have not set a DG, I am connecting directly to the management port on a pc with an IP address in the same subnet as the management port.

I have added port one of the switch using the command configure managementvlan add port 1 tagged when I connect a pc to that port and try and ping either of the 2 ip addresses on the VLANs I get no reply. I have set 192.168.155.10/16 as the IP of the pc.

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

HI Peter,

From the output provided it appears that the "ManagementVLAN" does not have any ports added (ports active 0 out of total 0). The "Mgmt" VLAN has the MGMT port active and the IP address is assigned to it. How is your MGMT port connected to your network environement? Did you setup a Default Gateway on the switch? Have you tried to ping 192.168.155.4 or ping from the switch to your PC/host?

Thanks,
Andrew

Hello Peter,

I think this article might be a good place to start:

Getting IP connectivity on a EXOS switch

Please understand that the Mgmt VLAN is a port by itself and cannot communicate with anything else on the switch.
