11.2.3.4 Configuring Network Connectivity Page
The network interface is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch via any of the
switch's front panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch's network interface do
not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through which traffic is switched or routed.
To access the switch over a network you must first configure it with IP information (IP address, subnet
mask, and default gateway). You can configure the IP information using any of the following:
− BOOTP
− DHCP
− Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
Once you have established in-band connectivity, you can change the IP information using any of the
following:
− Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
− Terminal interface via telnet
− SNMP-based management
− Web-based management
Selection Criteria
Network Configuration Protocol Current
- Specify what the switch should do following power-up:
transmit a Bootp request, transmit a DHCP request, or do nothing (None). The factory default is None.
You cannot make this choice for both the network configuration protocol and the service port. You will
only be given the choices for Bootp or DHCP here if the service port protocol is configured to None.
Web Mode - Specify whether the switch may be accessed from a Web browser. If you choose to
enable web mode you will be able to manage the switch from a Web browser. The factory default is
enabled.
Java Mode - Enable or disable the java applet that displays a picture of the switch at the top right of
the screen. If you run the applet you will be able to click on the picture of the switch to select
configuration screens instead of using the navigation tree at the left side of the screen. The factory
default is enabled.
Configurable Data
IP Address - The IP address of the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
