IP Configuration
Use the IP Configuration page to configure network information for the management
interface, which is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch through
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 configure the network information for the management interface:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Change the Default IP Address of the
Switch on page 10.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select System > Management > IP Configuration.
The IP Configuration page displays.
6. Select the appropriate radio button to determine how to configure the network information for
the switch management interface:
• Dynamic IP Address (DHCP). Specifies that the switch must obtain the IP address
through a DHCP server.
• Dynamic IP Address (BOOTP). Specifies that the switch must obtain the IP address
through a BootP server.
• Static IP Address. Specifies that the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway
must be manually configured. Enter this information in the fields below this radio
button.
7. If you selected the Static IP Address radio button, configure the following network
information:
• IP Address. The IP address of the network interface. The default value is
192.168.0.239. Each part of the IP address must start with a number other than zero.
For example, IP addresses 001.100.192.6 and 192.001.10.3 are not valid.
• Subnet Mask. The IP subnet mask for the interface. The default value is
255.255.255.0.
• Default Gateway. The default gateway for the IP interface. The default value is
192.168.0.254.
