Before you can assign an IP address to the switch, you must obtain the
following information from your network administrator:
•
IP address for the switch
• Network mask for this network
• Default gateway for the network
To assign an IP address to the switch, complete the following steps:
1. From the Global Configuration mode prompt, type “interface vlan 1”
to access the interface-configuration mode. Press <Enter>.
2. Type “ip address ip-address netmask,” where “ip-address” is the switch
IP address and “netmask” is the network mask for the network. Press
<Enter>.
3. Type “exit” to return to the global configuration mode prompt. Press
<Enter>.
4. To set the IP address of the default gateway for the network to which
the switch belongs, type “ip default-gateway gateway,” where “gateway”
is the IP address of the default gateway. Press <Enter>.
Dynamic Configuration
If you select the “bootp” or “dhcp” option, IP will be enabled but will not
function until a BOOTP or DHCP reply has been received. You therefore
need to reset the switch start broadcasting service requests. Requests will
be sent periodically in an effort to obtain IP configuration information.
(BOOTP and DHCP values can include the IP address, subnet mask, and
default gateway.)
If the “bootp” or “dhcp” option is saved to the startup-config file (step 6),
then the switch will start broadcasting service requests as soon as it is
powered on.
