IP Configuration

You can configure the IP for the switch. The system has the default IP address. You can

re-configure or use the default value.

1. DHCP: disable or enable the DHCP client function. When DHCP function is enabling,

you don’t need to assign the IP address and subnet mask. The system will be

assigned the IP address from the local DHCP server.

2. IP Address: assign the switch IP address. The default IP is 192.168.1.77

3. Subnet Mask: assign the switch IP subnet mask.

4. Gateway: assign the switch gateway. The default value is 192.168.1.254

5. DNS1: Short for Domain Name Server an

Internet

service that translates

domain

name

into IP addresses. Because

domain name

are alphabetic, they're easier to

remember.

The Internet

is based on

IP address

. Every time you use a

domain

name

, therefore, a

DNS service

must translate the name into the corresponding IP

address. For example, the

domain name

www.net.com might translate to

192.168.1.1.

6. DNS2: The backup for DNS1. When the DNS1 cannot function, the DNS2 can replace

DNS1 immediately.

7. Select

<Save> action to save the configuration.

[NOTE] Always restart the switch after finished the setup.
