D-Link DGS-3324SR Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Basic Setup
The subsections below describe how to change some of the basic settings for the Switch such as changing IP
settings and assigning user names and passwords for management access privileges, as well as how to save the
changes and restart the Switch.
Switch Information
Click the Switch Information link in the Configuration menu.
Figure 3- 4. Switch Information – Basic Settings
The Switch Information window shows the Switch's MAC Address (assigned by the factory and
unchangeable). In addition, the Boot PROM and Firmware Version numbers are shown. This information is
helpful to keep track of PROM and Firmware updates and to obtain the Switch's MAC address for entry into
another network device's address table – if necessary.
You may assign a System Name, System Location, and System Contact. If any changes or additions are made,
click Apply to implement them.
Switch IP Settings
Switch IP settings may initially be set using the console interface prior to connecting to it through the Ethernet. If
the Switch IP address has not yet been changed, read the Introduction of the CLI Reference or skip ahead to the
end of this section for a quick description of how to use the console port and CLI IP settings commands to
establish IP settings for the switch.
To change IP settings using the web manager you must access the IP Address menu located in the
Configuration folder.
To configure the Switch's IP address:
Open the Configuration folder and click the IP Address link. The web manager will display the Switch IP
Settings menu below.
