Configuring IP and subnet mask information

Before proceeding, collect all the information you need to configure the Ethernet IP interface. This
includes the subnet mask, gateway IP address, or IPFC, and subnet mask for your system. When you
configure or change the Ethernet IP, subnet mask, gateway IP, or IPFC, and subnet mask from Web
Tools, there is a normal loss of network connection to the switch. Close all current windows and restart
Web Tools with the new IP address.

NOTE
The IPFC address is specific for each logical switch. The IPFC address is set to FC0 for switches that
do not support Virtual Fabrics.
