How Do You
Assign an IP
Address?
There are two ways that a switch can obtain an IP address.
The first way is for you to assign the IP configuration information manually.
The procedure for this is explained in “Configuring the IP Address, Switch
Name, and Other Basic Parameters” on page 54. You can initially assign
an IP address to a switch only through a local management session.
The second method is for you to activate the BOOTP and DHCP client
software on the switch and have the switch automatically download its IP
configuration information from a BOOTP or DHCP server on your network.
This procedure is explained in “Activating the BOOTP or DHCP Client
Software” on page 57.
