For more information about this command, see “IP ADDRESS” on
page 171.
Setting DHCP
The DHCP feature enables the switch to obtain an IP address from the
DHCP server. You must assign the DHCP command to the default VLAN,
VLAN 1, in the Interface mode. The syntax of the DHCP address
command is:
ip address dhcp
The following example sets the DHCP feature on the switch.
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan1
switch(config-if)# ip address dhcp
For more information about this command, see “IP ADDRESS DHCP” on
page 173.
Setting a
Gateway Address
The gateway address consists of an IP address and a subnet mask that
you assign to an interface on the switch. The local router uses this
information to allow devices that are not on the LAN to communicate with
the switch. The syntax of the gate address command, IP ROUTE, is:
ip route 0.0.0.0/0 interface
To set the gateway address on port 20 to 192.168.1.1 and with a subnet
mask of 24, enter the following commands:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# ip route 192.168.1.1/24 ge20
For more information about this command, see “IP ROUTE” on page 132.
Setting the
Network Time
The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to configure the time on the
switch by setting the IP address of an NTP server and setting a key to
ensure the proper NTP server has access to the switch. In addition, an
NTP server ensures that the time on the switch is set using the Greenwich
Mean Standard.
Note
You must have access to an NTP server to use this feature. Allied
Telesis does not provide an NTP server.
