5.1 System IP Overview
5.1.1 Management VLAN
Before performing remote management such as Telnet and web management, the IP
address of the switch has to be configured first. For the Quidway series Layer 2
Ethernet switch, only one VLAN interface can be configured with an IP address, and the
VLAN that corresponds to this interface becomes the management VLAN.
