Allied Telesis AT-9724TS Setting the Switchs IP Address using the Console Interface, Vlan Name

VLAN Name	This allows the entry of a VLAN Name from which a management station will be allowed to manage the Switch
	using TCP/IP (in-band via web manager or Telnet). Management stations that are on VLANs other than the one
	entered here will not be able to manage the Switch in-band unless their IP addresses are entered in the
	Security IP Management menu. If VLANs have not yet been configured for the Switch, the default VLAN contains
	all of the Switch's ports.There are no entries in the Security IP Management table, by default, so any
	management station that can connect to the Switch can access the Switch until a management VLAN is
	specified or Management Station IP Addresses are assigned.

Setting the Switch's IP Address using the Console Interface

Each Switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager or other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP,TFTP).The Switch's default IP address is 10.0.0.1.You can change the default Switch IP address to meet the specification of your networking address scheme.

The IP address for the Switch must be set before it can be managed with the Web-based manager.The Switch IP address can be automatically set using BOOTP or DHCP protocols, in which case the actual address assigned to the Switch must be known.The IP address may be set using the Command Line Interface (CLI) over the console serial port as follows:

Starting at the command line prompt, enter the commands config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy.Where the x's represent the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the y's represent the corresponding subnet mask.

Alternatively, you can enter config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/z.Where the x's represent the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the z represents the corresponding number of subnets in CIDR notation.

The IP interface named System on the Switch can be assigned an IP address and subnet mask which can then be used to connect a management station to the Switch's Telnet or Web-based management agent.

The system message Success indicates that the command was executed successfully.The Switch can now be configured and managed via Telnet and the CLI or via the Web-based management agent using the above IP address to connect to the Switch.
