SETTING AN IP
ADDRESS
You must establish IP address information for the switch to obtain
management access through the network. This can be done in either of the
following ways:
◆ Manual — You have to input the information, including IP address and
subnet mask. If your management station is not in the same IP subnet
as the switch, you will also need to specify the default gateway router.
◆ Dynamic — The switch can send IPv4 configuration requests to BOOTP
or DHCP address allocation servers on the network, or can
automatically generate a unique IPv6 host address based on the local
subnet address prefix received in router advertisement messages. An
IPv6 link local address for use in a local network can also be
dynamically generated as described in "Obtaining an IPv6 Address" on
page 114.
The current software does not support DHCP for IPv6, so an IPv6 global
unicast address for use in a network containing more than one subnet
can only be manually configured as described in "Assigning an IPv6
Address" on page 110.
MANUAL CONFIGURATION
You can manually assign an IP address to the switch. You may also need to
specify a default gateway that resides between this device and
management stations that exist on another network segment. Valid IPv4
addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Anything outside this format will not be accepted by the CLI program.
N OTE : The IPv4 address for VLAN 1 is obtained via DHCP by default.
