Assigning IP parameters
The allocation of valid IP parameters is vital to the management function of the switch.
1.6.1
Assigning IP parameters with IPAssign
IPAssign is a free tool that does not require installation, but can be used to assign IP
parameters very easily using BootP. This tool can be found on the included CD or at
www.phoenixcontact.com.
Procedure
•
Connect the switch to your PC and start IPAssign. The tool then displays the devices
that are sending BootP requests to assign an IP.

If the switch has not been assigned valid IP parameters, "No IP assigned 01" will appear
in the display.
