ZyXEL Communications metrogigabit switch manual IP Setup, Management IP Addresses, 108

Chapter 8 Basic Setting

Table 11	Basic Setting > Switch Setup (continued)
LABEL		DESCRIPTION
Level 4		Typically used for controlled load, latency-sensitive traffic such as SNA
		(Systems Network Architecture) transactions.
Level 3		Typically used for “excellent effort” or better than best effort and would
		include important business traffic that can tolerate some delay.
Level 2		This is for “spare bandwidth”.
Level 1		This is typically used for non-critical “background” traffic such as bulk
		transfers that are allowed but that should not affect other applications
		and users.
Level 0		Typically used for best-effort traffic.
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 reset the fields.

8.6 IP Setup

Use the IP Setup screen to configure the Switch IP address, default gateway device, the default domain name server and the management VLAN ID. The default gateway specifies the IP address of the default gateway (next hop) for outgoing traffic.

8.6.1 Management IP Addresses

The Switch needs an IP address for it to be managed over the network. The factory default IP address is 192.168.1.1. The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. The factory default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

You can configure up to 64 IP addresses which are used to access and manage the Switch from the ports belonging to the pre-defined VLAN(s).
