Configure management port

Refer to the following section for more information on configuring management port.

Management port

The following Ethernet ports can be configured as management port in SD650-N V3 tray installed in DW612S.
  1. Ethernet port on SMM2 (default)

  2. 1 Gb RJ45 Ethernet port on the front of the node

  3. 25 Gb SFP28 Ethernet port with share-NIC feature. Its location is specified in Front view.

Configure the management port

Use Lenovo XClarity Essentials OneCLI to configure the management port.
  1. Configure 25 Gb SFP28 Ethernet port with share-NIC feature as management port

    onecli config set IMM.SharedNicMode Shared:nic5 --bmc <bmc_user_id>:<bmc_password>@<bmc_external_IP>
  2. Configure 1 Gb RJ45 Ethernet port on the front of the node as management port

    onecli config set IMM.SharedNicMode Shared:nic0 --bmc <bmc_user_id>:<bmc_password>@<bmc_external_IP>
  3. Configure SMM2 Ethernet port as management port

    onecli config set IMM.SharedNicMode Dedicated --bmc <bmc_user_id>:<bmc_password>@<bmc_external_IP>

Verify the result of management port configuration

Use the OneCLI command to verify the result of management port configuration:

onecli config show IMM.SharedNicMode

Shared or Dedicated would appear on the screen—Shared indicates 1 Gb RJ45 Ethernet port or 25 Gb SFP28 Ethernet port on ConnectX-4 LOM is the management port; Dedicated indicates SMM2 Ethernet port is the management port.

UEFI setup menu also shows the management port configuration. Go to LXPM > UEFI Setup > BMC Settings > Network Settings > Network Interface Port, and check whether the setting is Shared or Dedicated.
