Assigning an IP Address to the
Switch or Stack
Assigning an IP address to your OmniSwitch 6600 Family
switch or stack is an important step in the setup process.
Remote sessions such as Telnet, FTP, and WebView require
an IP address. The IP address for these session types serves as
a destination point for the remote session. Therefore, before
the switch can support any remote login sessions, a valid IP
address must be configured.
To assign an IP address to a switch, simply assign an IP
address to the switch's default VLAN 1 by entering the
ip interface command at the CLI prompt. Be sure that the
command begins with the command syntax
ip interface
exactly as shown, followed by the the interface name, address,
the IP address, vlan, and the VLAN number. For example:
-> ip interface vlan-1 address 172.22.120.1
vlan 1
