The model name of the switch. The boot code version of the switch. The software version of the switch. IP Configuration Use the IP Configuration screen to configure network information for the management interface, which is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch through any of the switch's front-panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch's network interface do not affect the configuration of the front panel ports through which traffic is switched or routed. To configure the network information for the management interface: 1. Select System > Management > IP Configuration. 2. Select the appropriate radio button to determine how to configure the network information for the switch management interface: • Dynamic IP Address (DHCP). Specifies that the switch must obtain the IP address through a DHCP server. • Dynamic IP Address (BOOTP).

Enter this information in the fields below this radio button. 3. If you selected the Static IP Address option, configure the following network information: • IP Address. The IP address of the network interface. The factory default value is 192.168.0.239. Each part of the IP address must start with a number other than 0. For example, IP addresses 001.100.192.6 and 192.001.10.3 are not valid. • Subnet Mask. The IP subnet mask for the interface. The factory default value is 255.255.255.0. • Default Gateway. The default gateway for the IP interface. 4. Specify the VLAN ID for the management VLAN. The management VLAN is used to establish an IP connection to the switch from a workstation that is connected to a port in the same VLAN. If not specified, the active management VLAN ID is 1 (default), which allows an IP connection to be established through any port. When the management VLAN is set to a different value, an IP connection can be made only through a port that is part of the management VLAN. It is also mandatory that the 28
