52 - IP Configuration
You can assign the subnet mask for the IP address here. If the DHCP Client
function is enabled, you do not need to assign the subnet mask. The default
Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
Note: In the CLI, the enabled bit of the subnet mask is used to represent the
number displayed in the web management interface. For example, 8
represents: 255.0.0.0,16 represents: 255.255.0.0, 24 represents:
255.255.255.0.
You can assign the gateway for the switch here. The default gateway is
192.168.250.1.
Note: In the CLI, use 0.0.0.0/0 to represent the default gateway.
The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system built on a
distributed database for computers, services, or any resource connected to the
Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain
names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most importantly, it
translates domain names meaningful into the numerical identifiers associated
with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these
devices worldwide.
You can enter an IPv6 address for the ES8508.
An IPv6 address is represented as eight groups of four hexadecimal digits,
each group representing 16 bits (two octets). The groups are separated by
colons (:), and the length of IPv6 address is 128bits.
The 64-bit interface identifier is automatically generated from the MAC
address for the ES8508 using the modified EUI-64 format.
This IPv6 prefix specifies the size of a network or subnet. The default is 64.
The IPv6 default gateway IP address identifies the gateway (for example, a
router) that receives and forwards those packets whose addresses are
unknown to the local network. The agent uses the default gateway address
when sending alert packets to the management workstation on a network
other than the local network.
The IPv6 Neighbor Table lists neighbors of the ES8508.
The interface connected to the neighbor.
This is the MAC address of the neighbor.
This displays the Neighbor Unreachability Detection (NUD) state of the
neighbor entry.
Click the Remove button to remove an IPv6 configuration or IPv6 Neighbor
Table entry.
Click the Reload button to reload IPv6 configuration.
Click Apply to apply the settings.
Note: You must Save the settings
settings if the ES8508 is powered off.
