Setting the IP Address

NOTE: If the 6C105 or 6C107 chassis has been assigned an IP address, it is not
necessary to assign an IP address to the switch module. All installed modules have the
same IP address as the chassis. If a separate IP address for the switch module is
needed, proceed as follows.
To set the IP address, perform the following steps:
1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the IP Address field.
2. Enter the IP address into this field using Dotted Decimal Notation (DDN) format.
For example: nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
3. Press ENTER. If the IP address is a valid format, the cursor returns to the beginning of the IP
address field. If the entry is not valid, the screen displays the message "INVALID IP ADDRESS
OR FORMAT ENTERED". Local Management does not alter the current value and refreshes
the IP address field with the previous value.
4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command, then press ENTER. The warning screen

HUNTGROUP and IEEE8023ad. The default is HUNTGROUP.
NOTE: When the Agg Mode is set to 8023ad, the Port

is replaced with LINK AGGREGATION MENU. This menu
screen provides access to other screens to display Port,
Aggregator and System information, view and configure all
the port-related LACP parameters, and display a summary of
all the available aggregators and other related information.
