About this task
To set the switch or stack IP address when the switch configuration is not factory default.
Important:
When you change the IP address or subnet mask, you can lose connection to Telnet and
the Web. You also disable any new Telnet connection, and you must connect to the serial
Console port to configure a new IP address.
Note:
If you have run the install script to set up the configuration information, the IP address
of the device is already set. If you do not specify the stack or switch parameter when
configuring management IP address, the system automatically modifies the stack IP address
when in stack mode and the switch IP address when in standalone mode.
