xStack DGS-3400 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet Managed Switch
DGS -3426:4#config ipif System ipaddress 10.73.21.35/255.0.0.0
Comand: config ipif System ipaddress 10.73.21.35/8
Success.
DGS -3426:4#
In the above example, the Switch was assigned an IP address of 10.53.13.26 with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0. The system message
Success indicates that the command was executed successfully. The Switch can now be configured and managed via Telnet and
the CLI or via the Web-based management.
NOTE: The DGS-3400 series of switches have the capability to be configured for an IP address of
0.0.0.0, or, in essence, have no IP address. This function maybe used to disable Layer 3 functions
of the Switch. When the IP address is set to 0.0.0.0 (invalid IP address), the Switch can only be
managed through the console port or SIM. Other management applications such as Telnet, Web-
based and SNMP cannot be used to manage the Switch when its IP address is 0.0.0.0.
