LevelOne GSW-1290 Gigabit Layer2 SNMP Switch
entered in the VID field will not be able to manage the Switch in-band
unless their IP addresses are entered in the Security IP Management
menu. If VLANs have not yet been configured for the Switch, the default
VID (1) contains all of the Switch’s ports. There are no entries in the
Security IP Management table, by default
−
so any management station
that can connect to the Switch can access the Switch until either
Management Station IP Addresses (see page 38) are assigned or SNMP
settings are configured to control management.
Setting the Switch’s IP Address using the Console Interface
Each Switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP
network manager or other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP, TFTP). The Switch’s default IP
address is 10.90.90.90. You can change the default Switch IP address to meet the specification of your
networking address scheme.
The IP address for the Switch must be set before it can be managed with the Web-based manager. The
Switch IP address can be automatically set using BOOTP or DHCP protocols, in which case the actual
address assigned to the Switch must be known.
The IP address may be set using the Command Line Interface (CLI) over the console serial port as follows:
Starting at the command line prompt, enter the commands
config ipif System ipaddress
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
. Where the
x
’s represent the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface
named
System
and the
y
’s represent the corresponding subnet mask.
Alternatively, you can enter
config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/z
. Where the
x
’s represent the
IP address to be assigned to the IP interface named
System
and the
z
represents the corresponding number
of subnets in CIDR notation.
The IP interface named
System
on the Switch can be assigned an IP address and subnet mask that can then
be used to connect a management station to the Switch’s Telnet or Web-based management agent.
The system message
Success
indicates that the command was executed successfully. The Switch can now
be configured and managed via Telnet and the CLI or via the Web-based management agent using the
above IP address to connect to the Switch.
Security IP Management Stations Configuration
Use the
Security IP Management
window to define up to four community strings. Community strings are
used to verify who can receive SNMP information from the Switch.
To access the
Security IP Management
window, click
Trusted Host
in the
Security
folder.
Figure 3-4. Security IP Management menu
Use the Management Station IP Settings to select up to three management stations used to manage the
Switch. If you choose to define one or more designated management stations, only the chosen stations, as
defined by IP address, will be allowed management privilege through the web manager or Telnet session.
