Table 11 IP Setup

LABEL

DESCRIPTION

 

DHCP Client

Select this option if you have a DHCP server that can assign the switch an IP

 

 

address, subnet mask, a default gateway IP address and a domain name server

 

 

IP address automatically.

 

 

 

 

Static IP Address

Select this option if you don’t have a DHCP server or if you wish to assign static

 

 

IP address information to the switch. You need to fill in the following fields when

 

 

you select this option.

 

 

 

 

IP Address

Enter the IP address of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example

 

 

192.168.1.1.

 

 

 

 

IP Subnet Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example

 

 

255.255.255.0.

 

 

 

 

Default Gateway

Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation,

 

 

for example 192.168.1.254.

 

 

 

 

VID

Enter the VLAN identification number associated with the switch IP address.

 

 

This is the VLAN ID of the CPU and is used for management only. The default is

 

 

"1". All ports, by default, are fixed members of this "management VLAN" in order

 

 

to manage the device from any port. If a port is not a member of this VLAN, then

 

 

users on that port cannot access the device. To access the switch make sure

 

 

the port that you are connected to is a member of Management VLAN.

 

 

 

 

Out-of-band Management IP Address

 

 

 

 

IP Address

Enter the IP address of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example

 

 

192.168.0.1.

 

 

If you change this IP address, make sure the computer connected to this

 

 

management port is in the same subnet before accessing the GS.

 

 

 

 

Subnet Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example

 

 

255.255.255.0.

 

 

 

 

Default Gateway

Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation,

 

 

for example 192.168.1.254.

 

 

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes to the switch’s run-time memory. The switch

 

 

loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the

 

 

top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you

 

 

are done configuring.

 

 

 

 

Cancel

Click Cancel to begin configuring the fields again.

 

 

 

 

In-band IP Addresses

 

 

You can create up to 64 IP addresses, which are used to access and manage the switch from the ports

 

belonging to the pre-defined VLAN(s). You must configure a VLAN first.

 

 

 

 

IP Address

Enter the IP address for managing the switch by the members of the VLAN

 

 

specified in the VID field below.

 

 

 

 

IP Subnet Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.

 

 

 

 

VID

Type the VLAN group identification number.

 

 

 

 

Default Gateway

Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation.

 

 

 

 

Add

Click Add to insert the entry to the summary table below and save your changes

 

 

to the switch’s run-time memory. The switch loses these changes if it is turned

 

 

off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save your

 

 

changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.

 

 

 

 

Cancel

Click Cancel to reset the fields to your previous configuration.

 

 

 

 

Index

This field displays the index number of the rule. Click an index number to edit

 

 

the rule.

 

 

 

 

IP Address

This field displays the IP address.
