Class B network, and 255.255.255.0
for a Class C network, but custom
subnet masks are allowed.

Default Gateway

IP address that determines where
packets with a destination address
outside the current subnet should be
sent. This is usually the address of a
router or a host acting as an IP
gateway. If your network is not part of
an intranet, or you do not want the
Switch to be accessible outside your
local network, you can leave this field
unchanged.

VLAN Name

This allows the entry of a VLAN name
from which a management station (a
computer) will be allowed to manage
the switch using TCP/IP (in-band, or
over the network). Management
stations that are on VLANs other than
the one entered in the VLAN Name
field will not be able to manage the
switch in-band unless their IP
addresses are entered in the

Management Station IP Addresses
field. The default VLAN is named
default and contains all of the switch’s
ports. There are no entries in the

Management Station IP Addresses
table, by default − so any management
station can access the switch.
