Setting an IP Address

You must establish IP address information for the switch to obtain
management access through the network. The switch can be managed
through Gigabit Ethernet uplink Ports 17 or 18 within the data network,
or through Fast Ethernet Port 19 which is designed to serve as a dedicated
management port outside of the data network.

All ports are all configured as members of VLAN 1 by default. To manage
the switch through uplink ports 17 or 18, configure an IP address for the
VLAN to which these ports are assigned. To manage the switch through
the dedicated management port (Port 19), first assign this port to another
VLAN outside of the data network, and then configure an IP address for
management access to this VLAN.

You could also retain the uplink ports as members of the data network (i.e.,
the VLAN containing both the downlink and uplink ports), and add them
as members to a separate network configured with an IP address for
management access. Logically, the management VLAN should also contain
the dedicated management port. Just note that no traffic is allowed to pass
between any of the data ports 1-18 and the dedicated management port,
regardless of the VLANs to which they are assigned. Port 19 is only
provided for configuring and monitoring the switch.
