Assigning an IP
Address
The IP address for the switch enables you to access the switch through
the console port. You must assign an IP address to a VLAN in the
Interface Command Mode. You may assign the IP address to the default
VLAN which is VLAN 1 or to a VLAN that you have created. For
information about how to create a VLAN, see “Creating VLANs” on
page 40.
The syntax of the IP address command is:
ip address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/subnet mask
To set the IP address to 192.68.12.8 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0
(24 bits) to VLAN 1, enter the following commands:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan1
switch(config-if)# ip address 192.68.12.8/24
