Before you can assign an IP address to the switch, you must obtain the
following information from your network administrator:
•
IP address for the switch
•
Default gateway for the network
•
Network mask for this network
To assign an IP address to the switch, complete the following steps:
1. From the Global Configuration mode prompt, type "interface vlan 1"
to access the interface-configuration mode. Press <Enter>.
2. Type "ip address ip-address netmask," where "ip-address" is the switch
IP address and "netmask" is the network mask for the network. Press
<Enter>.
3. Type "exit" to return to the global configuration mode prompt. Press
<Enter>.
4. To set the IP address of the default gateway for the network to which
the switch belongs, type "ip default-gateway gateway," where "gateway"
is the IP address of the default gateway. Press <Enter>.
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.5 255.255.255.0
Console(config-if)#exit
Console(config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254
Console(config)#
Dynamic Configuration
If you select the "bootp" or "dhcp" option, IP will be enabled but will not
function until a BOOTP or DHCP reply has been received. You therefore
need to use the "ip dhcp restart client" command to start broadcasting
service requests. Requests will be sent periodically in an effort to obtain IP
configuration information. (BOOTP and DHCP values can include the IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway.)
