The switch is also assigned a unique MAC address by the
factory that cannot be changed.
Figure 1-2. Boot Screen
The switch’s MAC address can be found from the console
program under the Switch Information menu item, as shown
below.
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.
By default, an IP interface named System is configured on the
switch and contains all of the ports on the switch. The System
interface can be used initially to assign a range of IP addresses
to the switch. Later, when you configure VLANs and IP
interfaces on the switch, the ports you assign to these VLANs
and IP interfaces will be removed from the System
interface.
