Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address

This procedure explains how to change the IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway address of the switch. Before performing the procedure, note the
following:

ˆ

A gateway address is only required if you want to remotely manage
the device from a management station that is separated from the
switch by a router.

ˆ

To configure the switch to automatically obtain its IP configuration from
a DHCP server on your network, go to “Enabling and Disabling the
DHCP Client” on page 28.

To change the switch’s IP configuration, do the following procedure:

1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System

folder.

The System folder expands.

2. From the System folder, select IP Setup.

The IP Setup Page is displayed. See Figure 5.
