Note: The In-Band Switch IP Address field allows a switch to
operate as a standalone switch. This field is not required for
the operation of a stacked switch. The same value cannot be
entered in both the In-Band Switch IP Address field and the
In-Band Stack IP Address field.

In the In-Band Subnet Mask field enter the appropriate subnet
mask in dotted-decimal notation.
Note: If the In-Band Subnet Mask field does not already
contain a value when specifying an IP address for the switch, the
switch software provides an in-use, default value for the subnet
mask field. This value is based on the class of the IP address
entered in the previous step.
8
In the Default Gateway field, enter the appropriate default gateway in
dotted-decimal notation.
Note: If Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series switches
are being stacked, ensure that one switch is set as the Base Unit.
