Displaying the IP Address of the Local Interface

This procedure displays the IP address and subnet mask of the local
interface on the switch. The local interface on the master switch of an
enhanced stack designates the common VLAN of the switches in the
stack, as explained in “Enhanced Stacking Overview” on page 90. The
local interface is also used for remote Telnet, SSH, and web browser
management, as explained in “Planning for Remote Management” on
page 49.
To select the local interface, refer to “Setting the Local Interface”
on page 708.

To view the IP address and subnet mask of the local interface, perform the
following procedure:

1. From the Main Menu, type 5 to select System Administration.

2. From the System Administration menu, type 2 to select System

Configuration.

The System Configuration menu is shown in Figure 5 on page 61.

Note

Selections 5 to 7 in the System Configuration menu are described in
“Configuring the Switch’s Name, Location, and Contact” on page 60.
Selection 8, ARP Cache Timeout, is described in “Setting the ARP
Cache Timeout” on page 709
. Selection T, Configure System Time,
is described in “Setting the System Time” on page 66.

Items 1 through 4 in the menu display the IP settings for the routing
interface designated as the local interface on the switch. There will be
no IP settings if no interface has been designated as the local
interface.

1 - Eth0 Interface
This parameter displays the name of the local interface. An interface
name consists of “VLAN” followed the ID number (VID) of the VLAN
where the interface is assigned and the interface number, separated
by a dash (e.g., VLAN2-0).

2 - IP Address
This parameter displays the IP address and source of the address for
the local interface. The source is STATIC for a manually assigned
address or DHCP or BOOTP for an address supplied by a DHCP or
BOOTP server.

3 - Subnet Mask
This parameter specifies the subnet mask of the local interface.
