Initial Configuration; Static Ip Address And Subnet Mask - Dell PowerConnect 3324 User Manual

Initial Configuration

Initial configuration starts after the device has booted successfully. The initial configuration
scope for the device includes:
•

Static IP address and Subnet Mask

• Default gateway
• User name and privilege level must be configured to allow remote management.
If the device is to be managed from an SNMP-based management station, SNMP
community strings must also be configured.
Static IP Address and Subnet Mask
In PowerConnect 3324/3348 devices, IP interfaces can be configured on each port and no
limitation on the number of IP interfaces is imposed. After entering the configuration
command, it is recommended to check if a port was configured with the IP address by
entering the "show ip interface" command.
NOTICE: Only one VLAN can be assigned an IP address. If you assign an address to any other
VLAN, the new address overrides the original IP address.
To configure an interface on a VLAN, enter the commands at the system prompt as shown
in the following configuration example:
console> enable
console# configure
console(config)# interface vlan 1
console(config-if)# ip address 100.1.1.1 /8
console(config-if)# exit
console(config)# exit
console# show ip interface
