When you setup your Vess R2000, you have the option of:

• Enabling DHCP and letting your DHCP server assign the IP address to the Vess R2000’s virtual

management port.

• Specifying a static IP address for the Vess R2000’s virtual management port.

If you choose to enable DHCP, have your Network Administrator dedicate an IP address for the Vess R2000,

linked to the Vess R2000’s MAC address. This action prevents the DHCP server from assigning a new IP address

when the Vess R2000 restarts, with the result that users can no longer log in.
