the Dell M8428-k Hardware Reference Manual under the section with this same section name.
Connecting to the converged network switch management interface
After succesfully setting the IP address of the switch module, a terminal emulator (Telnet, SSH) CLI connection can
be established to the converged switch module, from a remote management workstation, through the Chassis
Management Controller (CMC) Ethernet port. The management interface can be used for any additional
configuration of the switch module.
