IP CONFIGURATION

IP Configuration

Use the IP Configuration screen to set the bootup option, configure the IP address for the on-board management agent, or set the number or concurrent Telnet sessions allowed. The screen shown below is described in the following table.

Parameter

Default

Description

IP State

USER-CONFIG Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via

 

 

manual configuration, or set by Boot Protocol

 

 

(BOOTP). Options include:

 

 

USER-CONFIG - IP functionality is enabled

 

 

based on the default or user specified IP

 

 

Configuration. (This is the default setting.)

 

 

BOOTP Get IP - IP is enabled but will not

 

 

function until a BOOTP reply has been received.

 

 

BOOTP requests will be periodically broadcast

 

 

by the switch in an effort to learn its IP address.

 

 

(BOOTP values can include the IP address,

 

 

default gateway, and subnet mask.)

IP Address

10.1.0.1

IP address of the switch you are managing. The

 

 

switch supports SNMP over UDP/IP transport

 

 

protocol. In this environment, all systems on the

Internet, such as network interconnection devices and any PC accessing the on-board agent (or running EliteView) are assigned an IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, of 0 to 255, separated by periods. Anything outside of this format will not be accepted by the configuration program.
