IP Management
Guidelines
See the following list for guidelines about assigning the switch a
management IPv4 or IPv6 address:
You can assign the switch one IPv4 address and one IPv6 address.
A management address must be assigned to a VLAN on the switch. It
can be assigned to any VLAN, including the default VLAN which has a
VID of 1. For background information on VLANs, see Chapter 11,
“Setting Port-based and Tagged VLANs” on page 127.
If you assign both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to the switch, you must
assigned them to the same VLAN.
An IPv4 management address can be assigned manually or from a
DHCP server on your network. (To learn the switch’s MAC address, go
to the Dashboard page. See Figure 4 on page 23.)
An IPv6 address must be assigned manually. The switch does not
support the assignment of an IPv6 management address from a DHCP
server.
You must assign the switch a default gateway if the network devices,
such as syslog servers and Telnet workstations, are not members of
the same subnet as the management address. This IP address
designates an interface on a router or other Layer 3 device that
represents the first hop to the remote subnets or networks where the
network devices are located.
The default gateway address, if needed, must be a member of the
same subnet as the management address.
