27 IP Interface Commands
An IP Version 4 and Version 6 address may be used for management access to the
switch over the network. Both IPv4 or IPv6 addresses can be used simultaneously to
access the switch. You can manually configure a specific IPv4 or IPv6 address or
direct the switch to obtain an IPv4 address from a BOOTP or DHCP server when it is
powered on. An IPv6 address can either be manually configured or dynamically
generated.
An IPv4 address for this switch is obtained via DHCP by default for VLAN 1. You may
also need to a establish an IPv4 or IPv6 default gateway between this device and
management stations that exist on another network segment.
IPv4 Interface
There are no IP addresses assigned to this switch by default. You must manually
configure a new address to manage the switch over your network or to connect the
switch to existing IP subnets. You may also need to a establish a default gateway
between this device and management stations or other devices that exist on
another network segment (if routing is not enabled).
This section includes commands for configuring IP interfaces, the Address
Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Proxy ARP.
