Operation Manual – IP Address and Performance H3C S5500-SI Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 IP Address Configuration Table 1-1 IP address classes and ranges Class Address range Description Address 0.0.0.0 means this host no this network. This address is used by a host at bootstrap when it does not know its IP address.
Operation Manual – IP Address and Performance H3C S5500-SI Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 1 IP Address Configuration Figure 1-2 Subnetting a Class B address Note that subnetting is somewhat a tradeoff between subnets and accommodated hosts. For example, a Class B network can accommodate 65,534 hosts before being subnetted.
The primary and secondary IP addresses you assign to the interface can be located on the same network segment. With S5500-SI series Ethernet switches, you can configure IP addresses for VLAN interfaces and Loopback interfaces. Only 32-bit subnet masks can be configured on Loopback interfaces.
