You can use the 'b mgmt' and 'b mgmt route' commands to remove and set the management IP and routes. See 'b mgmt help' and 'b mgmt route help' for details. For 10.x you can also use tmsh to do this. I'd suggest making these changes from the serial port though. Or if you don't have serial port access, you can use the SCCP or AOM (for the 1600) to access the host. See these related solutions for configuring remote access to the SCCP and AOM:
