System information

Configuring the Switch
3-12
Command Attributes
• Management VLAN – ID of the configured VLAN (1-4093, 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.
Manual Configuration
Web – Click System, IP Configuration. Select the VLAN through which the
management station is attached, set the IP Address Mode to “Static,” enter the IP
