5.2 - System Information Screen
5.4 IP Address Configuration
This menu allows you to change the IP address for the switch as well as reconfigure IP
settings. Once the IP address has been set, the switch must be rebooted.
 DHCP - Disable or enable the DHCP client function. When DHCP function is enabled,
the system will assign IP addresses to devices from the local DHCP server.
Therefore, you do not have to assign the IP addresses.
 IP Address – Use this option to assign the switch IP address. The default IP address
is 192.168.16.1.
 Subnet Mask - Use this option to assign the switch IP subnet mask.
 Gateway – Use this option to assign the switch gateway. The default gateway value
is 192.168.16.254.
 DNS1 – DNS1 is short for Domain Name Server. DNS is an
Internet service that
translates domain names into IP addresses. Because domain names are
alphabetic, they are easier to remember, however, t
he Internet is based on IP
addresses
. Each time a user accesses the domain name of a web page, a DNS
service
must translate the name into the corresponding IP address. For example,
the domain name www.net.com might translate to 192.168.1.1.
 DNS2 - DNS2 is the backup for DNS1. If the DNS1 cannot function, the DNS2 will
replace DNS1.
