Default Description
USER-CONFIG Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual
configuration, or set by Boot Protocol (BootP). Options
include:
BOOTP Get IP - IP is enabled but will not function until
a BootP reply has been received. BootP requests will be
periodically broadcast by the switch in an effort to learn
its IP address. (BootP values include the IP address,
default gateway, and subnet mask.)
USER-CONFIG - IP functionality is enabled based on
the default or user specified IP Configuration. (This is
the default setting.)
192.168.10.1 IP address of the switch you are managing. The switch
supports SNMP over UDP/IP transport protocol. In this
environment, all systems on the Internet, such as
network interconnection devices and any PC accessing
the switch are assigned an IP address. Valid IP
addresses consist of four decimal numbers, of 0 to 255,
separated by periods. Anything outside of this format will
not be accepted by the configuration program.
255.255.255.0 Subnet mask of the switch. This mask identifies the host
address bits used for routing to specific subnets.
0.0.0.0 The gateway that the switch's agent uses to pass data
to the management station. Note that the gateway must
be defined if the management station is located in a
different IP segment.
Physical address of the switch.
4 Sets the number of concurrent Telnet sessions allowed
to access the switch.
