IP Configuration
This function allows users to configure the switch’s IP address settings.
DHCP Client
: You can select to
Enable
or
Disable
DHCP Client function. When DHCP
Client function is enabled, an IP address will be assigned to the switch from the network’s
DHCP server. In this mode, the default IP address will therefore be replaced by the one
assigned by DHCP server. If DHCP Client is disabled, then the IP address that you
specified will be used instead.
IP Address
: You can assign the IP address reserved by your network for your JetNet
5020G. If DHCP Client function is enabled, you don’t need to assign an IP address to the
JetNet 5020G, as it will be overwritten by DHCP server and shown here. The default IP
address is 192.168.10.1.
Subnet Mask
: You can assign the subnet mask for the IP address here. If DHCP Client
function is enabled, you don’t need to assign the subnet mask. The default Subnet Mask is
255.255.255.0.
Note:
In the CLI, we use the enabled bit of the subnet mask to represent
the number displayed in web UI. For example, 8 stands for 255.0.0.0; 16 stands for
255.255.0.0; 24 stands for 255.255.255.0.
Default Gateway
: You can assign the gateway for the switch here. The default gateway is
192.168.10.254.
Note:
In CLI, we use 0.0.0.0/0 to represent for the default gateway.
Once you finish configuring the settings, click on
Apply
to apply your configuration
.
IPv6 Configuration –
An IPv6 address is represented as eight groups of four hexadecimal
digits, each group representing 16 bits (two octets). The groups are separated by colons (:),
and the length of IPv6 address is 128bits.
The default IPv6 address of JetNet 5020G is generated from hardware MAC by
IEEE-defined 64-bit Extended Unique Identifier (EUI-64), so that each JetNet 5020 owns
her identicle default IPv6 address. (ex: 00:12:77:FF:88:88 -> fe80::212:77ff:feff:8888)
