IP Configuration

The IP configuration identifies the switch on the Ethernet network and determines which boot method to use. Table 4-5describes the IP configuration parameters.

	Table 4-5. IP Configuration Parameters

Parameter	Description

IP Address	Internet Protocol (IP) address for the Ethernet port. The default and
	PROM mode value is 10.0.0.1.
Subnet mask	Subnet mask address for the Ethernet port. The default and PROM
	mode value is 255.0.0.0.
Boot Method	Choose one of the following methods:
	■ Static - Uses the IP configuration parameters entered in the
	Switch Properties window.
	■ BootP - Acquires the IP configuration from a BootP server.
	■ RARP (Reverse Address Resolution Protocol) - Acquires the IP
	address from an RARP server. A RARP request is broadcast,
	with up to three retries, each at 5 second intervals. If no IP
	address is obtained, the switch reverts to the previously
	configured IP address.
	■ DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) - Acquires the IP
	configuration from a DHCP server. If no satisfactory lease is
	obtained, the DHCP client attempts to use the previously
	configured lease. If the previous lease cannot be used, no IP
	address will be assigned to this switch in order to avoid an IP
	address conflict. The DHCP server must then be made available.
	If a BootP, RARP, or DHCP server is not available, the switch will
	boot. However, you will be unable to manage the switch through the
	Ethernet connection. To manage a switch under these
	circumstances, the connection must be made through the serial port
	or inband from another switch.
Gateway	IP gateway address. The default and PROM mode value is
	10.0.0.254.
