Configuring the IP Address
Each switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager
or other TCP/IP applications. The switch's default IP address is
0.0.0.0
and should thus be configured prior to
installation. You can change the switch’s default IP address to fit into your networking address range.
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 system-info
" into the command line interface in the
Privileged EXEC
mode,
as shown below.
Figure 4-6 The ‘show system-info’ command
The IP address of the Switch must be configured before it can be managed, by the user, via the Web User Interface.
