Configure static IP address, subnet mask, default gateway.
In order to manage the switch from the network, you have to configure the device IP address,
subnet mask, and, in case the device is managed from another network, default gateway. You can assign
an IP address to any interface—VLAN, physical port, port group (by default, VLAN 1 interface has the IP
address 192.168.1.239, mask 255.255.255.0). Gateway IP address should belong to the subnet that has
one of the IP interfaces of the device.
If the IP address is configured for the physical port or port group interface, this interface
will be deleted from its VLAN group.
If all switch IP addresses are deleted, you can access it via IP 192.168.1.239/24.
Command examples for IP address configuration on VLAN 1 interface.
Interface parameters:
IP address to be assigned for VLAN 1 interface: 192.168.16.144
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
The default IP address of the gateway is 192.168.16.1
