Setting an IP Address
– 43 –
will not function until a reply has been received from the server.
Requests will be broadcast periodically by the switch for an IP address.
DHCP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway. (Default: Enabled)
◆ IP Address – Address of the VLAN specified in the VLAN ID field. This
should be the VLAN to which the management station is attached. Valid
IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
(Default: 192.168.2.10)
◆ IP Mask – This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing
to specific subnets. (Default: 255.255.255.0)
◆ IP Router – IP address of the gateway router between the switch and
management stations that exist on other network segments.
◆ VLAN ID – ID of the configured VLAN. By default, all ports on the
switch are members of VLAN 1. However, the management station can
be attached to a port belonging to any VLAN, as long as that VLAN has
been assigned an IP address. (Range: 1-4095; Default: 1)
◆ DNS Server – A Domain Name Server to which client requests for
mapping host names to IP addresses are forwarded.
IP DNS Proxy Configuration
◆ DNS Proxy – If enabled, the switch maintains a local database based
on previous responses to DNS queries forwarded on behalf of attached
clients. If the required information is not in the local database, the
switch forwards the DNS query to a DNS server, stores the response in
its local cache for future reference, and passes the response back to the
client.
