DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual Setting the Switch’s IP Address Each switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager or other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP, TFTP). The Switch’s default IP address is 10.90.90.90. You can change the default switch IP address to meet the specification of your networking address scheme.

DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual Figure 1-3. Assigning an IP Address In the above example, the Switch was assigned an IP address of 10.53.13.144 with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0. The system message Success indicates that the command was executed successfully. The Switch can now be configured and managed via...
ONSOLE The xStack DES-6500 supports a console management interface that allows the user to connect to the Switch’s management agent via a serial port and a terminal or a computer running a terminal emulation program. The console can also be used over the network using the TCP/IP Telnet protocol.

PIM or Protocol Independent Multicast is a method of forwarding traffic to multicast groups over the network using any pre- existing unicast routing protocol, such as RIP or OSPF, set on routers within a multicast network. The xStack DES-6500 switch series supports two types of PIM, Dense Mode (PIM-DM) and Sparse Mode (PIM-SM).
Page 317
DES-6500 Modular Layer 3 Chassis Ethernet Switch CLI Manual Register and Register Suppression Messages Multicast sources do not always join the intended receiver group. The first hop router (DR) can send multicast data without being the member of a group or having a designated source, which essentially means it has no information about how to relay this information to the RP distribution tree.
