Configuration of the Advertisement and Management IP address

After both networks have been connected with the local network via a switch, they can be located by using the Dime Manager™ . In this state, both gateways use the default IP address 192.168.0.254.

Go to Dime Manager -> IP Settings.

Dime Manager -> IP Settings

The Advertisement and Management IP address of both gateways can be changed via the shortcut menu of the Dime Manager™. In this workshop the address 10.10.10.1/24 shall be assigned to one network and the address 10.10.10.2/24 shall be assigned to the other network. Following successful configuration, these interfaces are used for the configuration access and for the exchange of BRRP status messages.
