4.2.1 Network Configuration
Click the option Network Configuration from the Network Management menu and then
the following screen page appears.
MAC Address: This view-only field shows the unique and permanent hardware address
assigned to the Managed switch. You cannot change the Managed Switch’s MAC address.
IP Assignment: There are two configuration types that users can choose from; these are
“DHCP” and “Static lP”. When “DHCP” is selected and a DHCP server is also available
on the network, the Managed Switch will automatically get the IP address from the DHCP
server. If “Static IP” is selected, users need to specify the IP address, Subnet Mask and
Gateway.
NOTE: This Managed Switch also supports auto-provisioning function that enables DHCP
clients to automatically download the latest Firmware and configuration image from the
server. For information about how to set up a DHCP server, please refer to
APPENDIX A
.
IP Address: Enter the unique IP address of this Managed Switch. You can use the default
IP address or specify a new one when the situation of address duplication occurs or the
address does not match up with your network. (The factory default setting is 192.168.0.1.)
Subnet Mask: Specify the subnet mask. The default subnet mask values for the three
Internet address classes are as follows:
•
Class A: 255.0.0.0
•
Class B: 255.255.0.0
•
Class C: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: Specify the IP address of a gateway or a router, which is responsible for the
delivery of the IP packets sent by the Managed Switch. This address is required when the
Managed Switch and the network management station are on different networks or subnets.
The default value of this parameter is 0.0.0.0, which means no gateway exists and the
network management station and Managed Switch are on the same network.
Current State: This View-only field shows manually or DHCP assigned IP address, Subnet
Mask and Gateway of the Managed Switch.
