Option 1. Congure the IP address for access over the service port
To disable DHCP and manually congure the IP address so that you can access
the switch over the service port, enter the following commands:
(switch)#congure
(switch)#serviceport protocol none
(switch)#serviceport ip ipaddress netmask [gateway]
The following conguration is an example:
(switch)#serviceport ip 192.168.2.23 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1
Option 2. Congure the switch as a DHCP client for access over the
service port
To enable the DHCP client for dynamic IP address assignment so that you can
access the switch over the service port, enter the following commands:
(switch)#congure
(switch)#serviceport protocol dhcp
Option 3. Congure the switch IP address for access over an
Ethernet port
To disable DHCP and manually congure the IP address settings so that you can
access the switch over an Ethernet port, enter the following commands:
(Switch)#congure
(Switch)(cong)#interface vlan 1
(Switch)(if-vlan 1)#ip address ipaddress netmask
(Switch)(if-vlan 1)#exit
(Switch)(Cong)#ip default-gateway gateway
The following conguration is an example:
(Switch)(if-vlan 1)#ip address 192.168.1.253 255.255.255.0
(Switch)(Cong)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254
Option 4. Congure the switch as a DHCP client for access over an
Ethernet port
To enable the DHCP client for dynamic IP address assignment so that you can
access the switch over an Ethernet port, enter the following commands:
(Switch)#congure
(Switch) (Cong)#interface vlan 1
(Switch) (if-vlan1)#ip address dhcp
Note: For information about CLI management, see the CLI reference manual,
which you can download by visiting netgear.com/support/download/.
Find the IP address assigned by the DHCP server
To nd the IP address that the DHCP server assigned to the switch’s service port
or management interface, connect a computer or VT100/ANSI terminal to the
RJ-45 RS232 console port on the switch.
1. Make sure that the switch is connected to a DHCP server.
2. Set up a console connection with the switch.
For information about setting up a console connection, see .
After you are logged in and at the CLI command prompt, continue with the
next step.
3. At the command prompt, type one of the following commands:
• To nd the IP address of the service port, type the show serviceport
command, and press Enter.
• To nd the IP address of the management interface, type the
show ip interface command, and press Enter.
The active IP address displays.
4. Write down the IP address for later use.
3. Congure and manage the switch
To congure and manage the switch, log in to the switch over a Telnet connection
to port 1223 and the IP address of either the service port or the management
interface, type the telnet IP address 1223 command, and press Enter. You must
use port 1223. For example, if the IP address of the management interface is
192.168.1.253, type the telnet 192.168.1.253 1223 command, and press Enter.
