CAUTION
Cisco Small Business SG200 Series 8-port Smart Switch
Select one of the following options for the IP Address Type:
• DHCP—The management interface obtains its IPv4 address from a DHCP
server. DHCP is enabled by default and the switch requests an IP address
from a DHCP server. If it is unable to get the IP address from a server, the
switch falls back to the factory default static IP address. The System LED
flashes continuously and the switch keeps trying to get its IP address from a
DHCP server. If you set a static IP address, the LED stops flashing. The
factory default static IP address is 192. 1 68. 1 .254/24, with a default gateway
IP address of 192. 1 68. 1 . 1 .
• BOOTP—The management interface obtains its IPv4 address from a BOOTP
server.
• Static—The management interface IPv4 address assigned in the IP
Address field.
If the IP Address Type is set to Static, specify the following:
- IP Address—Enter an IPv4 address.
- Mask—Enter a 32-bit network mask (for example, 255.255.255.0).
Or select Prefix Length and specify the number of bits (0–32) that make
up the network prefix (for example, 24).
- Default Gateway—Select User Defined and specify the default
gateway IP address for management packets.
Or select None to prevent management packets from being transmitted
outside the subnet.
• Operational Default Gateway—The current default gateway in use.
• Renew DHCP—Select Renew DHCP and click Apply to send a request to
the DHCP server for a new IP address and related parameters.
Click Apply. Your changes are saved to the Running Configuration.
Changing the management IP address and IP Address Type terminates the current
management session. Changing the Management VLAN and its port memberships
might disrupt your communication with the switch and thus might terminate the
current management session.
