Required
No IP address is assigned by
default.
z You can assign at most two IP addresses to an interface of the S5100-SI Series Ethernet Switches,
one of which is the primary IP address and the other is the secondary IP address. The primary and
secondary IP addresses of an interface cannot reside on the same network segment. A VLAN
interface cannot be configured with a secondary IP address if the interface has been configured to
obtain an IP address through BOOTP or DHCP.
z The S5100-EI series Ethernet switches do not support to specify a secondary IP address of an
interface.
z A newly specified primary IP address overwrites the previous one if there is any.
