4.2.3.3 Network Connectivity
The network interface is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch via any of the switch's front panel
ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch's network interface do not affect the configuration of the front
panel ports through which traffic is switched or routed.
To access the switch over a network you must first configure it with IP information (IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway). You can configure the IP information using any of the following:
。
BOOTP
。
DHCP
。
Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
Once you have established in-band connectivity, you can change the IP information using any of the following:
。
Terminal interface via the EIA-232 port
。
Terminal interface via telnet
。
SNMP-based management
。
Web-based management
The page includes the following configurable data:
IP Address - The IP address of the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
。
Subnet Mask - The IP subnet mask for the interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
。
Default Gateway - The default gateway for the IP interface. The factory default value is 0.0.0.0
。
Locally Administered MAC Address - You may configure a locally administered MAC address for in-band
。
connectivity instead of using the burned-in universally administered MAC address. In addition to entering an
address in this field, you must also set the MAC address type to locally administered. Enter the address as twelve
hexadecimal digits (6 bytes) with a colon between each byte. Bit 1 of byte 0 must be set to a 1 and bit 0 to a 0, i.e.
byte 0 must have a value between x'40' and x'7F'.
MAC Address type - Specify whether the burned-in or the locally administered MAC address should be used for
。
in-band connectivity. The factory default is to use the burned-in MAC address
