Enable protected mode on the AMM, then 'platform chassis-management protected-mode' on your switch. The switch will require a reload and sever the fastethernet management ports automatically.
We do this all the time here. :) Note that this seriously breaks any existing configuration in some circumstances (which I won't get to here). I strongly suggest you use the provided stacking cables at least between two switches in one Bladecenter chassis if your switch does stacking (I use 3110x's, mostly, so it's required to get 10GbE uplink redundancy).

Peter, I'm not familiar with the IBM, but when I deploy the 3x20 for the HP chassis, I just disable to the Fa0 port to cut it off from the HP Onboard Administrator, and then proceed to configure it as a 'regular' switch with a management VLAN that comes in on the regular uplinks to the rest of the network. Hope that helps.

Hmm... it seems that the bladecenter management interface actually carries this traffic, i.e. the switch management is the same VLAN as I place the Bladecenter AMM in. Is there any way around this? I don't like placing server stuff (like the AMM) together with my switches. :-) -- Peter _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
