Chapter 5: Configuring the management IP

Setting the IP address

Use this procedure to set the IP address and subnet mask for the switch or stack. You can also use
this procedure to select the boot mode for the next switch reboot.
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 do not specify the stack or switch parameter, the system automatically modifies the stack
IP address when in stack mode and modifies the switch IP address when in standalone mode.
Procedure

ip address [switch|stack|unit<1–8>][<A.B.C.D>] [netmask <A.B.C.D>]
