Setting the Switch's IP Address (IP Version 4)
◆
To enable routing between interfaces defined on this switch and external
network interfaces, you must configure static routes
routing; i.e., RIP (page
OSPFv3 and BGPv4 are only supported through the Command Line Interface.
◆
The precedence for configuring IP interfaces is the IP > General > Routing
Interface (Add Address) menu, static routes
routing.
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
◆
VLAN – ID of the configured VLAN (1-4094). By default, all ports on the switch
are members of VLAN 1. However, the management station can be attached to
a port belonging to any VLAN, as long as that VLAN has been assigned an IP
address.
◆
IP Address Mode – Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual
configuration (User Specified), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), or
Boot Protocol (BOOTP). If DHCP/BOOTP is enabled, IP will not function until a
reply has been received from the server. Requests will be broadcast periodically
by the switch for an IP address. DHCP/BOOTP responses can include the IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway. (Default: DHCP)
◆
IP Address Type – Specifies a primary or secondary IP address. An interface can
have only one primary IP address, but can have many secondary IP addresses.
In other words, secondary addresses need to be specified if more than one IP
subnet can be accessed through this interface. For initial configuration, set this
parameter to Primary. (Options: Primary, Secondary; Default: Primary)
Note that a secondary address cannot be configured prior to setting the
primary IP address, and the primary address cannot be removed if a secondary
address is still present. Also, if any router or switch in a network segment uses a
secondary address, all other routers/switches in that segment must also use a
secondary address from the same network or subnet address space.
◆
IP Address – IP Address of the VLAN. Valid IP addresses consist of four
numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. (Default: None)
Note: You can manage the switch through any configured IP interface.
◆
Subnet Mask – This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to
specific subnets. (Default: None)
◆
Restart DHCP – Requests a new IP address from the DHCP server.
