To manually assign the Switch's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
1. Click Static at the top of the window.
2. Enter the appropriate IPv4 Address and Subnet Mask.
3. If the Switch will be managed from the subnet on which it is installed, 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,
the VLAN Name of the VLAN that contains the port connected to the management station will have to be
entered to access the Switch.
5. Use the drop-down Interface Admin State menu to select Enabled if it has not already been done.
To use the BOOTP or DHCP protocols to assign the Switch an IP address and subnet mask, select either BOOTP or
DHCP.
The IP Address Settings options are:
Parameter Description
Static
Allows the entry of an IPv4 address, Subnet Mask, and a Default Gateway for the Switch. These
fields should be of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number (represented in decimal
form) between 0 and 255. This address should be a unique address on the network assigned for
use by the network administrator.
DHCP The Switch will send out a DHCP broadcast request when it is powered up. The DHCP protocol
allows IP addresses, network masks, and default gateways to be assigned by a DHCP server. If
this option is set, the Switch will first look for a DHCP server to provide it with this information
before using the default or previously entered settings.
BOOTP
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.
IP Interface The current IP Interface being assigned an IP address on this window.
Name
IPv4 Address Enter the desired IPv4 address to be set. The default address is 10.90.90.90.
Subnet Mask A Bitmask that determines the extent of the subnet that the Switch is on. Should be of the form
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number (represented in decimal) between 0 and 255. The
value should be 255.0.0.0 for a Class A network, 255.255.0.0 for a Class B network, and
