IP Configuration
The IP Configuration menu allows you to configure the IP parameters.
(Only displayed in Layer 2 mode)
• Interface Type - Indicates IP over Ethernet.
• IP Address - IP address of the Switch you are managing. The system
supports SNMP over TCP/IP transport protocol. In this environment, all
systems on the Internet, such as network interconnection devices, must
have an IP address.
• Subnet Mask - Subnet mask of the Switch. This mask identifies the host
address bits used for routing to specific subnets.
• Gateway IP - Gateway used to pass trap messages from the system to
the management station. Note: The gateway must be defined (when oper-
ating at Layer 2) if the management station is located in a different IP
segment.
• IP State - Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual con-
figuration (default setting), or set by Boot Protocol (BOOTP).
Select Apply to make changes. Select OK to return to the previous panel.
Select Cancel to cancel any changes.
Network Configuration
The Network Configuration menu allows you to set the Switch’s IP address,
configure the IP parameters, or enable the on-board Web management.
• IP Configuration* - Sets the bootup option or configure the Switch’s IP
parameters. It changes the default IP address on the Switch.
• IP Connectivity Test (Ping) - Tests IP connectivity to a specified device. You
can plug in a workstation on the network to check for connectivity.
• HTTP Configuration - Allows the admin to enable or disable the Web
administration feature of the Switch.
* This menu does not appear if the Switch is set to multilayer mode. In this
case, you need to configure an IP interface for each VLAN that needs to con-
nect to any device outside of its own VLAN group.
