IP Address
Figure 7-1. TCP/IP Parameters Setup window
This window is used to determine whether the Switch should get its IP Address settings from the user
(Manual), a BOOTP server, or a DHCP server. If you are not using either BOOTP or DHCP, enter the IP
Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway of the Switch. If you enable BOOTP, you do not need to
configure any IP parameters because a BOOTP server automatically assigns IP configuration
parameters to the Switch. If you enable DHCP, a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol request will be
sent when the Switch is powered up. Once you have selected a setting under Get IP From, click Apply
to activate the new settings.
The information is described as follows:
• MAC Address – The Ethernet address for the device. Also known as the physical address
• Get IP From – There are three choices for how the Switch receives its IP Address settings:
Manual, BOOTP, and DHCP.
• IP Address – The host address for the device on the TCP/IP network.
• Subnet Mask – The address mask that controls subnetting on your TCP/IP network.
• Default Gateway – The IP address of the device—usually a router—that handles connections to
other subnets and/or other TCP/IP networks.
• VID – The VLAN ID number.
