2.5.1Setting a Static IP Address

To connect the SAS6160 switch to a host, follow these steps:

1.The 10/100 Ethernet connector (RJ-45 connector) on the connector side of the switch provides access to the embedded SDM Domain Manager utility. Use this utility to configure and manage the switch.

—Use a standard RJ-45 cable, if connecting to an external Ethernet hub or switch.

—Use a crossover RJ-45 cable, if connecting directly to a computer.

2.Plug the other end of the RJ-45 cable into an Ethernet hub/switch or a computer. Use a web browser (Microsoft® Internet Explorer®, or Mozilla® Firefox®) on the host. By default, the switch supports the configuration parameters listed in the following table, which provides a point-to-point (non-network) Ethernet connection between the switch and the host.

WARNING: Provide the SAS6160 switch with a proper AC protective earth ground connection. Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the SAS6160 switch without a suitably installed ground conductor.

The following table lists the switch configuration defaults.

Table 3: Switch Configuration Defaults

Parameter	Default

Name	SAS6160

POST	Regular

Active Zone Set	None

IP Address Assignment	Static

IP Address	192.168.1.100

IP Subnet Mask	255.255.255.0

IP Gateway	192.168.1.1

You can reconfigure the switch to connect to an Ethernet network.

The default IP address provides initial identification of the SAS6160 switch on a network. To change the IP address use either the SDM-GUI or the SDM-CLI interface explained in Chapter 3 and Chapter 4, respectively.

Using SDM_GUI

1.Log on to SDM_GUI using the admin account.

2.From the Devices tab, select the switch.

3.Click on the Operations tab.

4.Click on the Configure IP link to open the Configure IP box.

5.Click the Static IP radio button.

6.Configure the static IP address, DNS, and gateway provided by your network administrator.
