DESCRIPTION

Default
Management

Select which traffic flow (In-Band or Out-of-band) the switch use to send packets with an unknown
source or originate from the switch itself (such as SNMP traps).

Select Out-of-band to have the switch send the packets to the out-of-band management port. This
means that device(s) connected to the other port(s) do not receive these packets.

Select In-Band to have the switch send the packets to all ports except the out-of-band management
port. This means that device(s) connected to out-of-band management port do not receive these
packets.

In-Band Management IP Address

DHCP Client Select this option if you have a DHCP server that can assign the switch an IP address, subnet mask,

a default gateway IP address and a domain name server IP address automatically.

Static IP
Address

Select this option if you don’t have a DHCP server or if you wish to assign static IP address
information to the switch. You need to fill in the following fields when you select this option.

IP Address

Enter the IP address of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 192.168.1.1.

IP Subnet

Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask of your switch in dotted decimal notation for example 255.255.255.0.

Default

Gateway

Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation, for example
192.168.1.254.

VID

Enter the VLAN identification number associated with the switch IP address. This is the VLAN ID of
the CPU and is used for management only. The default is "1". All ports, by default, are fixed
members of this "management VLAN" in order to manage the device from any port. If a port is not a
member of this VLAN, then users on that port cannot access the device. To access the switch make
sure the port that you are connected to is a member of Management VLAN.

Out-of-band Management IP Address

IP Address

Enter the IP address of the management port in dotted decimal notation for example 192.168.0.1.

If you change this IP address, make sure the computer connected to this management port is in the
same subnet before accessing the GS.

Subnet Mask Enter the IP subnet mask in dotted decimal notation for example 255.255.255.0.

Default
Gateway

Enter the IP address of the default outgoing gateway in dotted decimal notation, for example
192.168.1.254.

Apply Click

Apply to save your changes back to the switch.

Cancel Click

Cancel to begin configuring the fields again.

In-band IP Addresses

You can create up to 128 IP addresses, which are used to access and manage the switch from the ports belonging
to the pre-defined VLAN(s). You must configure a VLAN first.

IP Address

Enter the IP address for managing the switch by the members of the VLAN specified in the VID field
below.
