Cisco 500 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide 340

IP Configuration

IP interface addresses can be configured manually by the user, or automatically

configured by a DHCP server. This section provides information for defining the

device IP addresses, either manually or by making the device a DHCP client.

This section covers the following topics:

• Overview

• IPv4 Management and Interfaces

• DHCP Server

• IPv6 Management and Interfaces

• Domain Name

Overview

NOTE SG500X devices always work in L3+L2 mode, unless they are in Hybrid mode (see

Stack Unit Mode) when they act like Sx500 devices. The Sx500 devices, on the

other hand, must always be set to work in either Layer 2 or Layer 3 system mode.

Therefore, when this section refers to a device that works in Layer 3 system mode,

this refers to all SG500X devices in Native stacking mode and those devices that

have been manually set to Layer 3 system mode. When this document refers to a

device that works in Layer 2 system mode, this refers to all Sx500 devices and

SG500X devices (in Hybrid mode) that have been manually set to Layer 2 mode.

The MTU for layer 3 traffic on the SG500X, SG500XG and ESW2-550X is limited to

9000 bytes.
