Instruction Manual - NXA-ENET8-POE+
Perform these steps to set a static IPv4 address for the switch:
1.
Click
System
>
IP
.
2.
Select
Configure Interface
from the Step list.
3.
Select
Add Address
from the Action list.
4.
Select any configured VLAN, set the IP Address Mode to
User Specified
, set the IP Address Type to
Primary
if no address has
yet been configured for this interface, and then enter the IP address and subnet mask.
5.
Select
Primary
or
Secondary
Address Type.
6.
Click
Apply
.
Perform these steps to obtain an dynamic IPv4 address through DHCP/BOOTP for the switch:
1.
Click
System
>
IP
.
2.
Select
Configure Interface
from the Step list.
3.
Select
Add Address
from the Action list.
4.
Select any configured VLAN, and set IP Address Mode to BOOTP or DHCP.
5.
Click
Apply
to save your changes.
6.
Click
Restart DHCP
to immediately request a new address. IP will be enabled but will not function until a BOOTP or DHCP reply
is received. Requests are broadcast every few minutes using exponential back-off until IP configuration information is
obtained from a BOOTP or DHCP server.
NOTE:
The switch will also broadcast a request for IP configuration settings on each power reset.
IP Address Type
Specifies a primary or secondary IP address. An interface can have only one primary IP address,
but can have many secondary IP addresses. In other words, secondary addresses need to be
specified if more than one IP subnet can be accessed through this interface. For initial
configuration, set this parameter to Primary. (Options: Primary, Secondary; Default: Primary)
Note that a secondary address cannot be configured prior to setting the primary IP address, and
the primary address cannot be removed if a secondary address is still present. Also, if any router or
switch in a network segment uses a secondary address, all other routers/switches in that segment
must also use a secondary address from the same network or subnet address space.
IP Address
IP Address of the VLAN. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by
periods. (Default: 192.168.2.10)
Subnet Mask
This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific subnets. (Default:
255.255.255.0)
Restart DHCP
Requests a new IP address from the DHCP server.
