Chapter 14: IPv4 and IPv6 Management Address Commands
302
IP ADDRESS
Syntax
ip address
ipaddress/mask
Parameters
ipaddress
Specifies a management IPv4 address for the switch. The address
is specified in the following format:
nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn
Where each NNN is a decimal number from 0 to 255. The numbers
must be separated by periods.
mask
Specifies the subnet mask for the address. The mask is a decimal
number that represents the number of bits, from left to right, that
constitute the network portion of the address. For example, the
IPv4 decimal masks 16 and 24 are equivalent to masks
255.255.0.0 and 255.255.255.0, respectively.
Mode
VLAN Interface mode
Description
Use this command to manually assign the switch an IPv4 management
address. You must perform this command from the VLAN Interface mode
of the VLAN to which to the address is to be assigned.
To assign the switch an IPv4 address from a DHCP server, refer to “IP
ADDRESS DHCP” on page 304.
An IPv4 management address is required to support the features listed in
Table 26 on page 286. The switch can have only one IPv4 address, and it
must be assigned to the VLAN from which the switch is to communicate
with the management devices (such as Telnet workstations and syslog
servers). The VLAN must already exist on the switch before you use this
command.
