  2. If multiple VLANs are configured, a screen showing all VLANs appears. The Menu interface displays the IP address for any VLAN. If you use the CLI to configure the IP address on a VLAN, use the CLI show ip command to list them.
  3. Press [E] (for Edit).
  4. If the switch needs to access a router, for example, to reach off-subnet destinations, select the Default Gateway field and enter the IP address of the gateway router.
  5. If you need to change the packet Time-To-Live (TTL) setting, select Default TTL and type in a value between 2 and 255.

    1. If you want to have the switch retrieve its IP configuration from a DHCP or Bootp server, at the
      IP Config

      field, keep the value as

      DHCP/ Bootp

      and go to step 8.

    2. If you want to manually configure the IP information, use the Space bar to select
      Manual

      and use the

      [Tab]

      key to move to the other IP configuration fields.

  7. Select the IP Address field and enter the IP address for the switch.
  8. Select the Subnet Mask field and enter the subnet mask for the IP address.
