Figure 4-2 IP Address Setting

The following entries are displayed on this screen:



IP Address Setting

DHCP Setting: Allows you to enable or disable the switch to serve as

DHCP

clien

t. If DHCP client is enabled, the switch will obtain the IP

address, subnet mask and default gateway from the DHCP s

erver

automatically; otherwise, these three items

should be configured

manually. By default, it is disabled.

IP Address:

Specify the system IP address

of the switch. The default system IP

address

is 192.168.0.1 and you can change it appropriate to your

needs. The

switch IP address must be compliant with the subnet

layout.

Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask of the switch. Subnet mask is an ad

dress

code that determines the size of the network.

By default, the

switch uses 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.

Default Gateway: Enter the default gateway of the switch. Gateway s

erves as the

default destination where the packet is to be forwarded when

its

destination IP address is not within the switch’s subnet.

Note:

1. The switch only possesses an IP address. The IP address newly configured will replace the

original one.

2. Changing the IP address to a different IP segment will interrupt the network communication, so

please keep the new IP address in the same IP segment with the local network.
