This chapter describes how to view and configure the Switch's basic settings for such as IP address,
ports, hardware alarms.
8.1 Overview
The System Info screen displays general Switch information (such as firmware version number)
and hardware polling information (such as fan speeds). The General Setup screen allows you to
configure general Switch identification information. The General Setup screen also allows you to
set the system time manually or get the current time and date from an external server when you
turn on your Switch. The real time is then displayed in the Switch logs. The Switch Setup screen
allows you to set up and configure global Switch features. The IP Setup screen allows you to
configure a Switch IP address in each routing domain, subnet mask(s) and DNS (domain name
server) for management purposes. The Port Setup screen allows you to enable or disable a port on
the Switch and configure the port settings, such as the speed and duplex mode.
