Example of Adding Configured Devices to the Management Domain of the Commander

Networking Requirements

The enterprise network shown in Figure 1 supports the EasyDeploy function. SwitchA functions as a DHCP relay agent and Commander. SwitchA, DHCP server, and the file server have reachable routes to each other.

A configured device Client6 on the network needs to be added to the management domain of the Commander for monitoring and management.

The IP address of the Commander is 192.168.1.6/24, and the MAC address of Client6 is 0200-0000-0000.

Figure 1 Adding configured devices to the management domain of the Commander

Configuration Roadmap

The configuration roadmap is as follows:
  1. Ensure that Client6 has reachable routes to the Commander.
  2. Configure the Commander IP address on Client6.
  3. Configure a client matching rule on the Commander so that the Commander can identify new devices.

    Adding configured devices to the management domain of the Commander can be implemented on a network where the EasyDeploy function has been deployed, and the file server, DHCP server, and Commander have been configured.

Procedure

  1. Configure the Commander IP address on Client6.

    <HUAWEI> system-view
    [HUAWEI] sysname Client6
    [Client6] easy-operation commander ip-address 192.168.1.6

  2. Configure information about Client6 on SwitchA.

    <HUAWEI> system-view
    [HUAWEI] sysname SwitchA
    [SwitchA] easy-operation
    [SwitchA-easyoperation] client 6 mac-address 0200-0000-0000
    [SwitchA-easyoperation] quit

    If many devices need to be added to the management domain of the Commander, enabling the client auto join function on the Commander is recommended.

  3. Verify the configuration.
