Parameters
interface Specifies the interface number. This value is always
eth0.
ipaddress Specifies an IP address for the switch or activates the
BOOTP or DHCP client software.

This command configures the following switch parameters:
ˆ IP address
ˆ Subnet mask
This command can also activate the DHCP and BOOTP client software on
the switch. Activating DHCP and BOOTP with this command is equivalent
to using “ENABLE BOOTP” on page 36 or “ENABLE IP
REMOTEASSIGN” on page 38.
Note
You cannot assign an IP address to the switch if the DHCP and
BOOTP client software is activated.
To display the current IP address and subnet mask, refer to “SHOW IP
INTERFACE” on page 60. To return the IP address and subnet mask to
their default values, refer to “PURGE IP” on page 41.
For background information on when to assign a switch an IP address,
refer to Chapter 3, “Basic Switch Parameters” in the AT-S63 Management
Software Command Line Interface User’s Guide.
