3-1-2. IP Configuration
IP configuration is one of the most important configurations in the switch. Without the
proper setting, network manager will not be able to manage or view the device. The switch
supports both manual IP address setting and automatic IP address setting via DHCP server. When
IP address is changed, you must reboot the switch to have the setting taken effect and use the
new IP to browse for web management and CLI management.

DHCP Setting:
DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Here DHCP means
a switch to turn ON or OFF the function.
The switch supports DHCP client used to get an IP address automatically if you set this
function “Enable”. When enabled, the switch will issue the request to the DHCP
server resided in the network to get an IP address. If DHCP server is down or does not
exist, the switch will issue the request and show IP address is under requesting, until
the DHCP server is up. Before getting an IP address from DHCP server, the device will
not continue booting procedures. If set this field “Disable”, you’ll have to input IP
address manually. For more details about IP address and DHCP, please see the Section
2-1-5 “IP Address Assignment” in this manual.
