78 Configuring & Monitoring the Switch VH-2402S
Setting a Default Gateway
The default Gateway parameter defines the IP address of a router or other
network device to which IP packets are to be sent if destined for a subnet
outside of that which the switch is operating.
To set a default gateway, do the following:
1. Select Management Setup Menu from the Main Menu.
2. Select Network Configuration and then IP Configuration.
3. In the field Gateway IP,enter the IP address and press [Enter].
Configuring BootP
The BootP protocol allows you to automatically configure the switch’s IP
address information. Enabling this feature greatly speeds up device
configuration, especially when a large number of devices are installed.
A BootP server must be operating on the network and be properly
configured for this option to work. When this option is enabled, the switch
tries to obtain an IP address from the BootP server.
To configure BootP, do the following:
1. Select Management Setup Menu from the Main Menu.
2. Select Network Configuration and then IP Configuration.
3. In the IP State field, select BOOTP-GET-IP.
This selection toggles between BOOTP-GET-IP and USER-CONFIG
(the default setting).
