Switching to a VS and Configuring a Management Account for the VS

Procedure

1. (Optional) Disable the VS command-line prompt from containing an Admin-VS hostname.

      The system view is displayed.

      The admin view is displayed.

   3. Run combined-sysname disable

      The VS command-line prompt is disabled from containing an Admin-VS hostname.

      By default, when you run the switch virtual-system vs-name command to switch from the Admin-VS to a non-Admin-VS, the VS command-line prompt contains an Admin-VS hostname and a VS hostname.

      The configuration is committed.

   5. Run return

      Return to the user view.

2. Run switch virtual-system vs-name

   The PS administrator switches from the Admin-VS to the VS.

   After switching to the VS, you can run the quit command to switch back to the user view of the PS.

3. Configure an IP address.
   1. Run system-view

      The system view is displayed.

      The interface view is displayed.

      In addition to the virtual management interface MEth0/0/0, you can also configure IP addresses for other Layer 3 interfaces such as a VLANIF interface on the VS.

   3. Run ip address ip-address { mask | mask-length }

      The IP address is configured.

      Configure IP addresses and deploy routes based on the network plan to ensure that routes between terminals and VSs are reachable.
