Table 18: Network Connectivity Configuration for IPv4 and IPv6 Fields (continued)
Field
Description
Locally Administered MAC
Address
Specifies a locally administered MAC address for in-band connectivity instead of
using the burned-in universally administered MAC address. In addition to
entering an address in this field, you must also set the MAC address type to
locally administered. Enter the address as twelve hexadecimal digits (6 bytes)
with a colon between each byte. Bit 1 of byte 0 must be set to a 1 and bit 0 to a
0. In other words, byte 0 must have a value between x'40' and x'7F'.
Management VLAN ID
Specify the management VLAN ID of the switch. It may be configured to any
value in the range of 1 to 4093. The management VLAN is used for management
of the switch. This field is configurable for administrative users and read-only for
other users.

If you change any of the parameters, click
Submit
to apply the changes to the system. If you want the
switch to retain the new values across a power cycle, you must save the configuration.
Click
Renew DHCP IPv4 Address
to force the interface to release the current DHCP-assigned
information and submit a request for new information.
