limitations). The IPv4 address can be manually configured in the “System Settings” tab
under the Main Settings section or the address can be set to be automatically retrieved
using the DHCP protocol. If the address has been configured via DHCP, it will indicate
this. This field also indicates the Subnet Mask by using the ‘slash’ notation that indicates
the number of bits that are 1 in the mask. For example: A Subnet Mask of 255.255.0.0
would be indicated by a /16. A Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0 would be indicated by a
/24 and so on. The subnet mask is accessible via SNMP as RFC1213-MIB::IPADENT-
NETMASK.<IPADDRESS> where <IPADDRESS> is the IP address of the switch (example:
192.168.0.1).
IPv6 address: This field displays the current configured IPv6 address. IPv6 is the newer
standard of Internet Protocol addressing that greatly expands the number of addressing
possibilities. Instead of the standard 4 x 8-bit address format that is used IPv4, IPv6 uses
8 fields of 16 bit values separated by colons. Each address display in hex format. If one
particular fields contains a 0, a :: can be used. An IPv6 address can also be retrieved by
DHCP. This field also uses the / designator for the subnet mask.
Default Gateway: This field contains the IP address of the router that this switch should
send external packets to. This address can be assigned manually in the “System Settings”
tab under the Main Settings section or can be retrieved automatically through DHCP. The
default gateway is accessible via SNMP as RFC1213-MIB::IPROUTENEXTHOP.
Serial Number: This is the serial number assigned to this switch at the factory and cannot be
changed.
Firmware revision: This is the current running firmware revision of this switch.
MAC address: This is the MAC address of this switch. It is configured at the factory and
cannot be changed.
Uptime: This is the amount of time this switch has been running since power was applied.
This data is available via SNMP as SYSTEM.SYSUPTIME.0.
