In-band Ethernet management

  • The in-band Ethernet method allows production and management data to be shared using the same physical connections. There is little, if any, dedicated infrastructure, including dedicated switches or cabling, involved with this solution.

    All Dell EMC switches and servers with Ethernet ports support in-band management. Chassis switches such as the Dell EMC Networking MX9116n and the Dell EMC Networking MX5108n for the Dell EMC PowerEdge MX7000, also support in-band management. In-band management is often attained using a dedicated VLAN used only for management of devices.

    Chapter 5 discusses the setup of the Ethernet in-band management for the configuration and management of devices on the production network.
