Setting Description
CIP VLAN The VLAN on which CIP will be enabled. The CIP VLAN can be the same as the management VLAN
or you can isolate CIP traffic on another VLAN that is already configured on the switch.
The default ID is 1. The default name for the CIP VLAN is default.
IP Address The IP address is a unique identifier for the switch in a network. The format is a 32-bit numeric
address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be from 0...255.
If the CIP VLAN is different from the management VLAN, you must specify an IP address for the CIP
VLAN.
Make sure that the IP address that you assign to the switch is not being used by another device in
your network.
Subnet Mask List The subnet mask is the network address that identifies the subnetwork (subnet) to which the switch
belongs. Subnets are used to segment the devices in a network into smaller groups. The default is
255.255.255.0.
If the CIP VLAN is different from the management VLAN, you must specify a subnet mask for the CIP
VLAN.
Optional Setting Description
Host Name A name for the switch. The name can have up to 31 alphanumeric characters. The name
cannot contain a ?, a space, or a tab. The default is ‘switch’.
We recommend entering either the name, the location, or the IP address of the switch to
help identify the switch during monitoring or troubleshooting.
System Date The date that the switch read from the network management station or that was
manually set during the initial setup. If you change the date, the change takes effect
immediately after you click Submit.
System Time The time that the switch read from the network management station or that was
manually set during the initial setup. If you change the time, the change takes effect
immediately after you click Submit.
