Setting IP parameters using the UI button
IP parameters can also be set by using the front panel User Interface (UI)
button. This allows for switch configuration without the need for a Console
connection.
Depending on the state of the switch, applying IP parameters in this manner
will result in either the parameters being applied to the switch itself or to
a switch stack. When the unit is in a stack, the UI button on any unit of
the stack can be used to set the IP parameters. Ensure however that
performing this procedure does not result in duplicate IP addresses on the
network. If the default IP configuration is set, any change to the configured
IP address or subnet mask through the other user interfaces will cause the
In-Use IP configuration of the switch or stack to change. Therefore, the
newly configured IP address must be used to manage the switch or stack.
If the unit is being reset using the UI button, wait for 60 seconds after the
last configuration change. The system takes up to 60 seconds to save the
configuration changes to NVRAM.
The stack can be reset immediately after changing the configuration by
using the UI button without losing any of the changed configuration.
Note 1: The UI button may be used at any time to change the In-Use
IP address and subnet mask of the switch. It overrides the current
In-Use IP address and subnet mask, if any, regardless of the BootP
mode settings for the switch or stack.
Note 2: If there is a change in the switch state, that is, if it joins or
leaves a stack after the default IP configuration is set, the In-Use IP
configuration will change, and must be set again using the UI button.
