Overview

This chapter describes the switch configuration features available in the menu
interface, CLI and web browser interface. For help on how to use these
interfaces, refer to:

Why Configure IP Addressing?

In its factory default configuration, the

switch operates as a multiport learning bridge with network connectivity
provided by the ports on the switch. However, to enable specific management
access and control through your network, you will need IP addressing. (See
table 7-1 on page 7-10.)
