Setting the Switch’s IP Address

This section describes how to configure an IP interface for management access over the network. The IP address for the stack is obtained via DHCP by default. To manually configure an address, you need to change the switch’s default settings (IP address 192.168.1.1 and netmask 255.255.255.0) to values that are compatible with your network. You may also need to a establish a default gateway between the stack and management stations that exist on another network segment.

You can manually configure a specific IP address, or direct the device to obtain an address from a BOOTP or DHCP server. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Anything outside this format will not be accepted by the CLI program.

Command Attributes

•Management VLAN – ID of the configured VLAN (1-4094, no leading zeroes). By default, all ports on the switch are members of VLAN 1. However, the management station can be attached to a port belonging to any VLAN, as long as that VLAN has been assigned an IP address.

•IP Address Mode – Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual configuration (Static), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), or Boot Protocol (BOOTP). If DHCP/BOOTP is enabled, IP will not function until a reply has been received from the server. Requests will be broadcast periodically by the switch for an IP address. (DHCP/BOOTP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway.)

•IP Address – Address of the VLAN interface that is allowed management access. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. (Default: 0.0.0.0)

•Subnet Mask – This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific subnets. (Default: 255.0.0.0)

•Gateway IP address – IP address of the gateway router between this device and management stations that exist on other network segments. (Default: 0.0.0.0)

•MAC Address – The physical layer address for this switch.

•Restart DHCP – Requests a new IP address from the DHCP server.
