Configuring Network Connectivity Page
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
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
Network Configuration Protocol Current - Choose what the switch should do following power-up:
transmit a Bootp request, transmit a DHCP request, or do nothing (none). The factory default is None.
You cannot make this choice for both the network configuration protocol and the service port. You will
only be given the choices for Bootp or DHCP here if the service port protocol is configured to None.
Management VLAN ID - Specifies the management VLAN ID of the switch. It may be configured to any
value in the range of 1 - 4054. The management VLAN is used for management of the switch. This field
is configurable for administrative users and read-only for other users.
Web Mode - Specify whether the switch may be accessed from a Web browser. If you choose to enable
web mode you will be able to manage the switch from a Web browser. The factory default is enabled.
Java Mode - Enable or disable the java applet that displays a picture of the switch at the top right of the
screen. If you run the applet you will be able to click on the picture of the switch to select configuration
screens instead of using the navigation tree at the left side of the screen. The factory default is enabled.
Web Port - This field is used to set the HTTP Port Number. The value must be in the range of 1 to 65535.
Port 80 is the default value. The currently configured value is shown when the web page is displayed.
Non-Configurable Data
Burned-in MAC Address - The burned-in MAC address used for in-band connectivity if you choose not
to configure a locally administered address.
Command Buttons
Submit - Update the switch with the values on the screen. If you want the switch to retain the new values
across a power cycle you must perform a save.
