2-1-4-2. Configuring the Management Agent of 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

through the Ethernet Port

There are three ways to configure and monitor the switch through the switch’s Ethernet

port. They are CLI, Web browser and SNMP manager. The user interface for the last one is NMS
dependent and does not cover here. We just introduce the first two types of management
interface.

• Managing 8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch through Ethernet Port

Before you communicate with the switch, you have to finish first the configuration of the

IP address or to know the IP address of the switch. Then, follow the procedures listed below.

1. Set up a physical path between the configured the switch and a PC by a qualified UTP

Cat. 5 cable with RJ-45 connector.

Note: If PC directly connects to the switch, you have to setup the same subnet mask
between them. But, subnet mask may be different for the PC in the remote site. Please
refer to Fig. 2-9 about the switch’s default IP address information.

2. Run CLI or web browser and follow the menu. Please refer to Chapter 3 and Chapter 4.

8 Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch
Default IP Setting:
IP = 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254

Assign a reasonable IP address,
For example:
IP = 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254
