Section I: Basic Operations

Configuring an IP Address and Switch Name

The procedure in this section explains how to manually assign an IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway address to the switch from a local or
Telnet management session. (If you want the switch to obtain its IP
configuration from a DHCP or BOOTP server on your network, go to the
procedure “Activating the BOOTP or DHCP Client Software” on page 55.)

This procedure also explains how to assign a name to the switch, along
with the name of the administrator responsible for maintaining the unit and
the location of the switch.

To manually set a switch’s IP address, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.

The System Administration menu is shown in Figure 4.
