Figure 2 - 2 IP Address Settings window
To manually assign the Switch's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
1. Select Manual from the Get IP From drop-down menu.
2. Enter the appropriate IP Address and Subnet Mask.
3. If accessing the Switch from a different subnet from the one it is installed on, enter the IP address of the Default Gateway.
If managing the Switch from the subnet on which it is installed, the user may leave the default address (0.0.0.0) in this
field.
4. If the Switch has no previously configured VLANs, the user can use the default VLAN Name. The default VLAN
contains all of the Switch ports as members. If the Switch has previously configured VLANs, the user will need to enter
the VLAN ID of the VLAN that contains the port connected to the management station that will access the Switch. The
Switch will allow management access from stations with the same VID listed here.
NOTE: The Switch's factory default IP address is 10.90.90.90 with a
subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 and a default gateway of 0.0.0.0.
To use the BOOTP or DHCP protocols to assign the Switch an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
Use the Get IP From: pull-down menu to choose from BOOTP or DHCP. This selects the method the Switch assigns an IP address
on the next reboot.
