IPv4 Information: There are three ways for the switch to obtain an IP address: Static, DHCP (Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol) and BOOTP.
When using static mode, the Interface Name, VLAN Name, Interface Admin State, IPv4 Address,
NetMask and Gateway can be manually configured. When using DHCP mode, the Switch will first look for a
DHCP server to provide it with an IP address (including network mask and default gateway) before using the
default or previously entered settings. By default the IP setting is static mode with IP address is 10.90.90.90
and subnet mask is 255.0.0.0.
DHCP Option 12 State: Specifies the DHCP option 12 state is enabled or disabled.
DHCP Option 12 Host Name: Specifies the host name for DHCP.
DHCP Retry Times: Specifies the retry time of DHCP.
System Information: By entering a System Name and System Location, the device can more easily be
recognized through the SmartConsole Utility and from other Web-Smart devices on the LAN.
Login Timeout: The Login Timeout controls the idle time-out period for security purposes, and when there is
no action for a specific time span in the Web-based Management. If the current session times out (expires),
the user is required a re-login before using the Web-based Management again. Selective range is from 3 to
30 minutes, and the default setting is 5 minutes.
