SET IP INTERFACE

Syntax

set ip interface=eth0
ipaddress=ipaddress|dhcp|bootp
mask|netmask=subnetmask

Parameters

interface

Specifies the interface number. This value is always

“eth0”.

ipaddress

Specifies an IP address for the switch or activates the

DHCP or BOOTP client software. Options are:

ipaddress

Specifies a static IP address.

DHCP

Activates the DHCP client software.

BOOTP

Activates the BOOTP client software.

mask

Specifies the subnet mask for the switch. You must

netmask

specify a subnet mask if you manually assigned the

switch an IP address. These parameters are
equivalent.

Description

This command configures the following switch parameters:

❑ IP address

❑ Subnet mask

Note

When setting the IP address and subnet mask of a switch accessed
through enhanced stacking, such as a slave switch, you must set the
subnet mask first or both IP address and subnet mask
simultaneously in the same command. Your network management
session will end if you set the IP address without specifying a subnet
mask.

This command can also activate the DHCP or BOOTP client software on
the switch. Activating DHCP and BOOTP with this command is
equivalent to using ENABLE BOOTP on page 41 or ENABLE IP
REMOTEASSIGN on page 43.
