the name and telephone number of the System Administrator.

Configuring the Switch’s IP Address
The Switch needs to have an IP address assigned to it so that
an In-Band network management system (for example, the Web

Switch Setup window allows you to change the settings for the
Ethernet interface used for in-band communication.
The fields listed under the Current IP Settings heading are
those that are currently being used by the switch. Those fields
listed under the New Switch IP Setting heading are those that
will be used after clicking on the Apply button.
To set the switch’s IP address:
Click the Basic Switch Setup link from the Main Menu to
