xStack DGS-3400 Series Fast Ethernet Switch

IP Address Assignment

An IP Address must be assigned to each switch, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager or

other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP, TFTP). The Switch's default IP address is 0.0.00 (i.e. no default IP

address). The user may change the default Switch IP address to meet the specification of your networking address scheme.

The Switch is also assigned a unique MAC address by the factory. This MAC address cannot be changed, and can be found

by entering the command "show switch" into the command line interface, as shown below.

Figure 4- 4. “show switch” command

The Switch's MAC address also appears in Switch Information menu of the web-based management interface.

The IP address for the Switch must be set beforeusing 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:

Starting at the command line prompt, enter the command:

config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy

Where the x's represent the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the y's represent the

corresponding subnet mask.

Alternatively, the user can enter config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/z. Where the x's represent the IP address

to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the 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.
