Accessing the controller engine from the switching engine
Specifying management IP addresses at the CLI
Accessing the controller engine from the switching engine's Web interface
The controller engine and the switching engine of the WX5540E use independent operating systems, Web interfaces, and CLI. From the perspective of SNMP, they are different entities. To access each other's Web interfaces, they must have each other's IP address.
To enable automatic toggling between their Web interfaces, H3C already specified the default management IP address of the switching engine on the controller engine, and specified the default IP address of the controller engine on the switching engine.
If you are using the default settings, you do not need to perform the task described in "Specifying management IP addresses at the CLI." If you have changed their management IP addresses, you must perform the task. For information about default Web login information, see "Login."
Specifying management IP addresses at the CLI
|
Step |
Command |
Remarks |
|
1. Enter system view of the controller engine. |
system-view |
N/A |
|
2. Specify the management IP address of the switching engine. |
oap management-ip ip-address slot 0 |
By default, the management IP address of the switching engine is 192.168.0.101. |
|
3. Return to user view. |
quit |
N/A |
|
4. Log in to the switching engine from the controller engine. |
oap connect slot 0 |
To return to the controller engine's CLI, press Ctrl+K. |
|
5. Enter system view of the switching engine. |
system-view |
N/A |
|
6. Specify the management IP address of the controller engine. |
oap management-ip ip-address slot 1 |
By default, the management IP address of the controller engine is 192.168.0.100. |
|
|
IMPORTANT: After the configuration, make sure the switching engine and controller engine can reach each other. |
Accessing the controller engine from the switching engine's Web interface
|
|
IMPORTANT: Toggle between the Web interfaces of the switching engine and the controller engine only if necessary. Frequent toggling can cause TCP connections to exceed the upper limit. If the connections exceed the upper limit, wait for several minutes (the Web idle timeout), and then log in to the Web interface again. Alternatively, execute the free web-users all command in user view at the CLI to log off all Web users. |
For information about how to configure the controller engine of the H3C WX5540E access controller, see H3C WX5540E Access Controller Switching Engine Configuration Guides and H3C WX5540E Access Controller Switching Engine Command References.
To log in to the controller engine from the switching engine, click Wlan Engine on the Web interface of the switching engine, and then enter the login settings.
