Configuring the IP Address of the Gaia Management Interface

Important - The default Gaia Management Interface on a 60000 / 40000 Appliance (Chassis) is eth1-Mgmt4.

The Gaia Management Interface is pre-configured with the IP address 192.168.1.1.

You can change this IP address during or after you run the Gaia First Time Configuration Wizard.

If you must access the Chassis over the network, assign the applicable IP address to that interface before you connect the Chassis to the network.

If you change the IP address of the Gaia Management Interface during the First Time Configuration Wizard, this warning appears:

Your IP address has been changed. In order to maintain the browser connection, the old IP address will be retained as a secondary IP address.
