outgoing traffic.
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 6-4 IP Setup
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Domain Name
Server DNS (Domain Name System) is for mapping a domain name to its corresponding IP address and
vice versa. Enter a domain name server IP address in order to be able to use a domain name
instead of an IP address.
Default
Management Specify which traffic flow (In-Band or Out-of-band) the switch is to send packets originating from
itself (such as SNMP traps) or packets with unknown source.
Select Out-of-band to have the switch send the packets to the out-of-band management port.
This means that device(s) connected to the other port(s) do not receive these packets.
Select In-Band to have the switch send the packets to all ports except the out-of-band
management port to which connected device(s) do not receive these packets.
In-band
Management IP
Address
DHCP Client Select this option if you have a DHCP server that can assign the switch an IP address, subnet
mask, a default gateway IP address and a domain name server IP address automatically.
Static IP
Address Select this option if you don’t have a DHCP server or if you wish to assign static IP address
information to the switch. You need to fill in the following fields when you select this option.
IP Address Enter the IP address of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 192.168.1.1.
IP Subnet Mask Enter the IP subnet mask of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation, for example
192.168.1.254.
VID Enter the VLAN identification number associated with the switch IP address. VID is the VLAN ID
of the CPU and is used for management only. The default is "1". All ports, by default, are fixed
members of this "management VLAN" in order to manage the device from any port. If a port is not
a member of this VLAN, then users on that port cannot access the device. To access the switch
make sure the port that you are connected to is a member of Management VLAN.
Out-of-band
Management IP
Address
IP Address Enter the IP address of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 192.168.0.1.
If you change this IP address, make sure the computer connected to this management port is in
the same subnet before accessing the ES-3124.
IP Subnet Mask Enter the IP subnet mask of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation, for example
192.168.0.254.
