1-4 IP
IP is an acronym for
I nternet P rotocol. It is a protocol used for
communicating data across an internet network.
IP is a "best effort" system, which means that no packet of information sent
over is assured to reach its destination in the same condition it was sent.
Each device connected to a Local Area Network (LAN) or Wide Area
Network (WAN) is given an Internet Protocol address, and this IP address is
used to identify the device uniquely among all other devices connected to
the extended network.
The current version of the Internet protocol is IPv4, which has 32-bits
Internet Protocol addresses allowing for in excess of four billion unique
addresses. This number is reduced drastically by the practice of
webmasters taking addresses in large blocks, the bulk of which remain
unused. There is a rather substantial movement to adopt a new version of
the Internet Protocol, IPv6, which would have 128-bits Internet Protocol
addresses. This number can be represented roughly by a three with thirty-
nine zeroes after it. However, IPv4 is still the protocol of choice for most of
the Internet.

The IPv4 address for the switch could be obtained via DHCP Server for
VLAN 1. To manually configure an address, you need to change the
switch's default settings to values that are compatible with your network.
You may also need to a establish a default gateway between the switch and
management stations that exist on another network segment.
