CLI – Enter the following command.
Setting the Switch’s IP Address
An IP address may be used for management access to the switch over your
network. By default, the switch uses DHCP to assign IP settings to VLAN 1 on the
switch. If you wish to manually configure IP settings, you need to set an IP address
and subnet mask that is compatible with your network. You may also need to
establish a default gateway between the switch and management stations that exist
on another network segment.
You can manually configure a specific IP address, or direct the device to obtain an
address from a BOOTP or DHCP server. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal
numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Anything outside this format will not be
accepted by the CLI program.
Command Attributes
• Management VLAN – ID of the configured VLAN (1-4093). This is the only VLAN
through which you can gain management access to the switch. By default, all ports
on the switch are members of VLAN 1, so a management station can be connected
to any port on the switch. However, if other VLANs are configured and you change
the Management VLAN, you may lose management access to the switch. In this
case, you should reconnect the management station to a port that is a member of
the Management VLAN.
• IP Address Mode – Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual
configuration (Static), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), or Boot
Protocol (BOOTP). If DHCP/BOOTP is enabled, IP will not function until a reply has
been received from the server. Requests will be broadcast periodically by the
switch for an IP address. (DHCP/BOOTP values can include the IP address,
subnet mask, and default gateway.)
• IP Address – Address of the VLAN to which the management station is attached.
(Note you can manage the switch through any configured IP interface.) Valid IP
addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
(Default: 0.0.0.0)
• Subnet Mask – This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to
specific subnets. (Default: 255.0.0.0)
• Gateway IP address – IP address of the gateway router between this device and
management stations that exist on other network segments. (Default: 0.0.0.0)
