3-1-2. IP Configuration
IP configuration is one of the most important configurations in the switch.
Without the proper setting, the network manager will not be able to manage or view
the device. The switch supports both manual IP address setting and automatic IP
address setting via a DHCP server. When the IP address is changed, you must
reboot the switch to have the setting take effect and use the new IP address to
browse for web management and CLI management.

Function name:

Function description:
Set IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS for the switch.
Parameter description:
DHCP Setting:
DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Here
DHCP means a switch to turn the function ON or OFF.
The switch supports a DHCP client used to get an IP address
automatically if you set this function to “Enable”. When enabled, the
switch will issue the request to the DHCP server resided in the network
to get an IP address. If DHCP server is down or does not exist, the
switch will issue the request and show that the IP address is under
request until the DHCP server is up. Before getting an IP address from a
DHCP server, the device will not continue booting procedures. If this field
is set to “Disable”, you’ll have to input the IP address manually. For more
details about IP addresses and DHCP, please see Section 2-1-4, “IP
Address Assignment”, in this manual.
Default: Disable
