Set Switch IP Address dialog box
The dialog box shows the switch name and its current IP address on the top portion and a suggested IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway for the switch on the bottom portion. The subnet mask and
gateway are the same as the server; the IP address is found in the Local Area Network (LAN).
NOTE:
For the server to be able to suggest a valid IP address, subnet mask, and gateway, it must
have a Network Interface Card (NIC) installed, enabled, and connected to the LAN. If not, the New
IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway fields are empty.

To use the suggested IP address, subnet mask, and gateway, if available, click OK. If not, enter valid
values in the New IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway fields, and then click OK.
