Cisco Small Business SG200 Series 8-port Smart Switches Administration Guide
• DHCP—The management interface obtains its IPv4 address from a DHCP
server.
• BOOTP—The management interface obtains its IPv4 address from a BOOTP
server.
• Static—The management interface IPv4 address assigned in the IP
Address field.
By default, DHCP is enabled 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 in this situation. The switch will keep trying to get its IP address
from a DHCP server. The factory default static IP address is 192. 1 68. 1 .254/
24, with default gateway192. 1 68. 1 . 1 .
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.
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 terminate the current
management session.
