Box Information - D-Link DXS-3326GSR Manual

server. If this option is set, the Switch will first look for a DHCP server to provide it with this
information before using the default or previously entered settings.
Manual Allows the entry of an IP address, Subnet Mask, and a Default Gateway for the Switch.
These fields should be of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number
(represented in decimal form) between 0 and 255. This address should be a unique address
on the network assigned for use by the network administrator.
Subnet Mask A Bitmask that determines the extent of the subnet that the Switch is on. Should be of the
form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number (represented in decimal) between 0 and
255. The value should be 255.0.0.0 for a Class A network, 255.255.0.0 for a Class B
network, and 255.255.255.0 for a Class C network, but custom subnet masks are allowed.
Default IP address that determines where packets with a destination address outside the current
Gateway subnet should be sent. This is usually the address of a router or a host acting as an IP gate-
way. If your network is not part of an intranet, or you do not want the Switch to be accessible
outside your local network, you can leave this field unchanged.
VLAN Name This allows the entry of a VLAN Name from which a management station will be allowed to
manage the Switch using TCP/IP (in-band via web manager or Telnet).
stations that are on VLANs other than the one entered here will not be able to manage the
Switch in-band unless their IP addresses are entered in the Security IP Management menu.
If VLANs have not yet been configured for the Switch, the default VLAN contains all of the
Switch's ports. There are no entries in the Security IP Management table, by default, so any
management station that can connect to the Switch can access the Switch until a
management VLAN is specified or Management Station IP Addresses are assigned.

Setting the Switch's IP Address using the Console Interface
Each Switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager or
other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP, TFTP). The Switch's default IP address is 10.90.90.90. You can change
the default Switch IP address to meet the specification of your networking address scheme.
The IP address for the Switch must be set before it can be managed with the Web-based manager. The Switch IP address
can be automatically set using BOOTP or DHCP protocols, in which case the actual address assigned to the Switch must be
known. The IP address may be set using the Command Line Interface (CLI) over the console serial port as follows:
Starting at the command line prompt, enter the commands config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/
•
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy. Where the x's represent the IP address to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the
y's represent the corresponding subnet mask.
Alternatively, you can enter config ipif System ipaddress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/z. Where the x's represent the IP
•
address to be assigned to the IP interface named System and the z represents the corresponding number of
subnets in CIDR notation.
The IP interface named System on the Switch can be assigned an IP address and subnet mask which can then be used to
connect a management station to the Switch's Telnet or Web-based management agent.
The system message Success indicates that the command was executed successfully. The Switch can now be configured
and managed via Telnet and the CLI or via the Web-based management agent using the above IP address to connect to the
Switch.
