current configuration.

command it is
suggested that you save the current configuration using the ‘

address that is reachable through your network.

web-based help available for the LE2425A and LEV2525A Switches.

How IP Addressing Affects Switch Operation
Without an IP address and subnet mask compatible with your network, the switch can be managed
only through a direct terminal device connection to the Console RS-232 port. You can use direct-
connect console access to take advantage of features that do not depend on IP addressing. However,
to realize the full performance capabilities LE2425A and LEV2525A networking offers through the
switch, configure the switch with an IP address and subnet mask compatible with your network. The
following table lists the general features available only with a network-compatible IP address
configured.
Features Not Available Without an IP Address
