5.7 IP Addressing
– IPV4
The switch is a network device which needs to be assigned an IP address for being
identified on the network. Users have to decide a means of assigning IP address to the
switch.

DHCP Client: Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When DHCP client
function is enabled, the switch will be assigned an IP address from the network
DHCP server. The default IP address will be replaced by the assigned IP address
on DHCP server. After the user clicks Apply , a popup dialog shows up to inform the
user that when the DHCP client is enabled, the current IP will lose and user should
find the new IP on the DHCP server.

IP Address: Assign the IP address that the network is using. If DHCP client function
is enabled, this switch is configured as a DHCP client. The network DHCP server
will assign the IP address to the switch and display it in this column. The default IP
is 192.168.16.1 or the user has to assign an IP address manually when DHCP
Client is disabled.

Subnet Mask: Assign the subnet mask to the IP address. If DHCP client function is
disabled, the user has to assign the subnet mask in this column field.

Gateway: Assign the network gateway for the switch. If DHCP client function is
disabled, the user has to assign the gateway in this column field. The default
gateway is 192.168.16.254.
