Setting the Switch’s IP Address
This section describes how to configure an IP interface for management
access over the network. The IP address for this switch is 192.168.2.10 by
default. To manually configure an address, make sure the DHCP Enabled box
is unchecked, then change the switch’s default settings (IP address
192.168.2.10 and netmask 255.255.255.0) to values that are compatible with
your network. You may also need to establish a default gateway between the
switch and management stations that exist on another network segment.
