Chapter 3
Assigning a System Identity
This section describes two methods, IP Address Configuration Utility and
Serial Interface Configuration Procedure, that allow you to assign a
Management IP Address, subnet mask, and optional default gateway address
to your Extranet Switch. The Management IP Address is the address that is
used for all system services, such as HTTP, FTP, and SNMP. The Management
IP Address will enable you to manage the Switch from a Web browser.
Figure 7 shows the choices you have when first configuring your
Management IP Address, subnet mask, and default gateway. The IP
Address Configuration Utility is on a diskette that comes with your Switch.
