32 Section I: Using the Menus Interface
Configuring the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address
This procedure explains how to manually assign an IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway address to the switch. Note the following before
performing the procedure:
ˆ The switch does not need an IP address, subnet mask, or default
gateway for normal network operations. These parameters must be
assigned values only if you plan to remotely manage the device with a
web browser from a management workstation on your network.
ˆ A gateway address is only required if your remote management station
is separated from the switch by a router.
ˆ To configure the switch to obtain its IP configuration from a DHCP
server on the network, go to “Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client”
on page 35.
To manually configure the switch’s IP settings, perform the following
procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type B to select Basic Switch Configuration.
The Basic Switch Configuration Menu is shown in Figure 4.
