4. Configure the default gateway. Enable the gateway.
RS G8264CS (config)# ip gateway 1 address 10.10.10.1 (example gateway address)
RS G8264CS (config)# ip gateway 1 enable
After you configure the IP address for your switch and you have an existing
network connection, you can use the Telnet program from an external
management station to access and control the switch. The management station
and your switch must be on the same IP subnet.
The G8264CS supports a command-line interface (CLI) that you can use to
configure and control the switch over the network using the Telnet program. You
can use the CLI to perform many basic network management functions. In
addition, you can configure the switch for management by using an
SNMP-based network management system or a web browser.
For more information about using the CLI, see the
Command Reference
for the
RackSwitch G8264CS.
