You must perform this configuration the first
time you operate the switch or after resetting the
switch. Type 'y' and then press <Enter>.
If you wish to accept the default hostname, then
press <Enter>. Otherwise, type a different host-
name and press <Enter>.
Perform this step to obtain an IP address for the
switch. (eth0 is the management port of the
switch.)
If you wish the DHCP server to assign the IP
address, type 'yes' and press <Enter>.
If you type 'no' (no DHCP), then you will be
asked whether you wish to use the 'zeroconf'
configuration or not. If you enter 'yes' (yes Zero-
conf), the session will continue as shown in
Table 8.
If you enter 'no' (no Zeroconf), then you need to
enter a static IP, and the session will continue as
shown in Table 9.
The management interfacewill be able to use
IPv6 addresses.
This turns on autoconfiguration of the IPv6
addresses. This is unsuitable for DHCPv6.
