D-Link DES-3526 Manual page 40

To manually assign the Switch's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
1. Select Manual from the Get IP From drop-down menu.
2. Enter the appropriate IP Address and Subnet Mask.
3. If you want to access the Switch from a different subnet from the one it is installed on, enter
the IP address of the Default Gateway. If you will manage the Switch from the subnet on
which it is installed, you can leave the default address (0.0.0.0) in this field.
4. If no VLANs have been previously configured on the Switch, you can use the default VLAN
Name. The default VLAN contains all of the Switch ports as members. If VLANs have been
previously configured on the Switch, you will need to enter the VLAN ID of the VLAN that
contains the port connected to the management station that will access the Switch. The Switch
will allow management access from stations with the same VID listed here.
To use the BOOTP or DHCP protocols to assign the Switch an IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway address:
Use the Get IP From pull-down menu to choose from BOOTP or DHCP. This selects how the Switch
will be assigned an IP address on the next reboot.
The IP Address Settings options are:

NOTE: The Switch's factory default IP address is 10.90.90.90
with a subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 and a default gateway of
0.0.0.0.
NOTE: If you enable the AutoConfig, the Get IP From
setting will automatically become DHCP.
Description
The Switch will send out a BOOTP broadcast request when it is powered up. The
BOOTP protocol allows IP addresses, network masks, and default gateways to be
assigned by a central BOOTP server. If this option is set, the Switch will first look for a
BOOTP server to provide it with this information before using the default or previously
entered settings.
