Management VLAN:

Enter the ID of management VLAN, the only VLAN through which
you can get access to the switch. By default VLAN1 owning all the
ports is the Management VLAN and you can access the switch via
any port on the switch. However, if another VLAN is created and
set to be the Management VLAN, you may have to reconnect the
management station to a port that is a member of the
Management VLAN.

Enter the system IP of the switch. The default system IP is
192.168.1.1 and you can change it appropriate to your needs.

Enter the subnet mask of the switch.

Enter the default gateway of the switch.

Note:

1. Changing the IP address to a different IP segment will interrupt the network communication,

so please keep the new IP address in the same IP segment with the local network.

2. The switch only possesses an IP address. The IP address configured will replace the original

IP address.

3. If the switch gets the IP address from DHCP server, you can see the configuration of the

switch in the DHCP server; if DHCP option is selected but no DHCP server exists in the
network, a few minutes later, the switch will restore the setting to the default.

be configured.
