The System Setting allows the user to configure the IP address and the basic system information of the
Switch.
IP Information: There are two ways for the switch to obtain an IP address: Static and DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol).
When using static mode, the IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway and DHCP Option 12 State can be
manually configured. When using DHCP mode, the Switch will first look for a DHCP server to provide it with
an IP address (including network mask and default gateway) before using the default or previously entered
settings. By default the IP setting is static mode with IP address is 10.90.90.90 and subnet mask is 255.0.0.0.
System Information: By entering a System Name and System Location, the device can more easily be
recognized.
Login Timeout: The Login Timeout controls the idle time-out period for security purposes, and when there is
no action for a specific time span in the Web-based Management. If the current session times out (expires),
the user is required a re-login before using the Web-based Management again. Selective range is from 3 to
30 minutes, and the default setting is 5 minutes.
Group Interval: The user can adjust the Group Interval to optimal frequency. Selective range is from 120 to
1225 seconds, and 0 means disabling the reporting function.
