The remote server analyzes the forwarding table according to the port number of the port at which the network device is connected to the switch to obtain an identifier of a remote management controller of the network device. The remote server assigns and transmits a network address of the remote management controller to the remote management controller of the network device according to the identifier of the remote management controller.
