IP Address
The IP Address may initially be set using the console interface prior to connecting to it through the Ethernet. If the Switch IP
address has not yet been changed, read the introduction of the
xStack
DGS-3600 Series CLI Manual
or return to Section 4 of this
manual for more information. To change IP settings using the web manager you must access the IP Address menu located in the
Administration folder.
To configure the Switch's IP address:
Open the
Administration
folder and click the
IP Address
menu link. The web manager will display the Switch's current IP
settings in the IP configuration menu, as seen below.
Figure 6- 2. IP Address Settings window
To manually assign the Switch's IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
1. Select
Manual
from the Get IP From drop-down menu.
2. Enter the appropriate IP Address and Subnet Mask.
3. If you want to access the Switch from a different subnet from the one it is installed on, enter the IP address of the Default
Gateway. If you will manage the Switch from the subnet on which it is installed, you can leave the default address
(0.0.0.0) in this field.
4. If no VLANs have been previously configured on the Switch, you can use the
default
VLAN Name. The
default VLAN
contains all of the Switch ports as members. If VLANs have been previously configured on the Switch, you will need to
enter the
VLAN ID
of the VLAN that contains the port connected to the management station that will access the Switch.
The Switch will allow management access from stations with the same VID listed here.
NOTE:
The Switch's factory default IP address is 10.90.90.90 with a
subnet mask of 255.0.0.0 and a default gateway of 0.0.0.0.
To use the BOOTP or DHCP protocols to assign the Switch an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address:
Use the Get IP From pull-down menu to choose from
BOOTP
or
DHCP
. This selects how the Switch will be assigned an IP
address on the next reboot.
The IP Address Settings options are:
Parameter Description
BOOTP
The Switch will send out a BOOTP broadcast request when it is powered up. The BOOTP
protocol allows IP addresses, network masks, and default gateways to be assigned by a central
BOOTP server. If this option is set, the Switch will first look for a BOOTP server to provide it with
this information before using the default or previously entered settings.
