Default gateway for the network
•
Network mask for this network
To assign an IP address to the switch, complete the following
steps:
1. From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode
prompt, type “interface vlan 1” to access the
interface-configuration mode. Press
2. Type “ip address ip-address netmask,” where “ip-address” is
the switch IP address and “netmask” is the network mask for
the network. Press
3. Type “exit” to return to the global configuration mode prompt.
Press
4. To set the IP address of the default gateway for the network to
which the switch belongs, type “ip default-gateway gateway,”
where “gateway” is the IP address of the default gateway. Press
Dynamic Configuration
If you select the “bootp” or “dhcp” option, IP will be enabled but
will not function until a BOOTP or DHCP reply has been received.
You therefore need to use the “ip dhcp restart” command to start
broadcasting service requests. Requests will be sent periodically in
an effort to obtain IP configuration information. (BOOTP and
DHCP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway.)
