The Switch’s MAC address can also be found in the Web management program on the Device
Information window on the Configuration menu.
The IP address for the Switch must be set before it can be managed with the Web-based manager. The
Switch IP address can be automatically set using BOOTP or DHCP protocols, in which case the actual
address assigned to the Switch must be known.
The IP address may be set using the Command Line Interface (CLI) over the console serial port as
follows:
1. Starting at the command line prompt, enter the commands config ipif System vlan default ipaddress
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy. Where the letter x represents the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface
named System and the letter y represents the corresponding subnet mask.
2. Alternatively, enter config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/z. Where the letter x represents the IP address to
be assigned to the IP interface named System and the letter z represents the corresponding number of subnets in
CIDR notation.
The IP interface named System on the Switch can be assigned an IP address and subnet mask which
can then be used to connect a management station to the Switch’s Telnet or Web-based management
agent.
