Conguring and Managing IP Interfaces and Services
Adding an Alias
To add an alias, use the following command:
set ip alias name ip-addr
Specify an alias of up to 32 alphanumeric characters.
To add an alias HR1 for IP address 192.168.1.2, type the following command:
DWS-1008# set ip alias HR1 192.168.1.2

After conguring the alias, you can use HR1 in commands in place of the IP address. For
example, to ping 192.168.1.2, you can type the command ping HR1.

Conguring and Managing Time Parameters
You can congure the system time and date statically or by using Network Time Protocol
(NTP) servers. In each case, you can specify the offset from Coordinated Universal Time
(UTC) by setting the time zone. You also can congure MSS to offset the time by an additional
hour for daylight savings time or similar summertime period.
Note. D-Link recommends that you set the time and date parameters before you install
certicates on the switch. Generally, certicates are valid for one year beginning with the
system time and date that are in effect when you generate the certicate request. If the
switch’s time and date are incorrect, the certicate might not be valid.
