[nomorenoless]

Hello,

We have recentry bought a NEXUS C9396TX and I been trying to configute the Management interphase to deploy the switch UI.
I have configured the management interphase IP example: 10.10.10.3/27 gateway 10.10.10.2
ping to 10.10.10.3 is alive but no GUI, reject browser call.

Do this the Nexus has GUI at all?

Regards and thanks in advance

hi Leo, that's not the issue my issue is just to know if the appliacen has GUI, I cannot jusy tell management learn CLI, 

[Leo Laohoo]

NX-OS, as far as I know, is purely CLI. 

I have never heard of anyone configuring Nexus in GUI.

Hello Leo,

I have read them all, and i had same understanding of, however, what I cannot understand is why a Console local management port and a Ethernet managemnent port.

[Leo Laohoo · Accepted solution]

An Ethernet Management port is purely used for out-of-band Management (OoBM).  IP address can be configured so remote CLI access to the device can be accomplished.  Think of this as an iLO or DRAK with servers.  

A console port is primarily a CLI connection using a console cable.  

Anyone who manages routers, switches, WLC or APs will use the console port first.

Hello @nomorenoless 

CLI is the way to configure NX-os but thanks to Nexus Dashboard you could use GUI to configure. Since the basic config is applied on the MGMT port...
