The information is described as follows:
Parameter
Description
Device Type
A description of the switch type.
MAC Address
The Ethernet address for the device. Also known as the physical address.
Get IP From
There are three choices for how the switch receives its IP Address settings:
Manual
,
BOOTP
, and
DHCP
.
IP Address
The host address for the device on the TCP/IP network.
VLAN Name
The VLAN name. The switch includes a pre-configured VLAN named “default.”
Subnet Mask
The address mask that controls subnetting on your TCP/IP network.
Default Gateway
The IP address of the device—usually a router—that handles connections to other
subnets and/or other TCP/IP networks.
Boot PROM Version
Version number for the firmware chip. This information is needed for new runtime
software downloads.
Firmware Version
Version number of the firmware installed on the switch. This can be updated by using
the Download Firmware from TFTP Server window in the TFTP Services folder (
Basic
Setup
Switch Utilities
).
Hardware Version
Version of the switch hardware.
Name
A user-assigned name for the switch.
Location
A user-assigned description for the physical location of the switch.
Contact
Name of the person to contact should there be any problems or questions with the
system. You may also want to include a phone number or extension.
Spanning Tree
This indicates if Spanning Tree is enabled on the switch. The switch’s global STP
settings can be changed on the STP Switch Settings window (
Advanced Setup
Spanning Tree
).
GVRP
This indicates if Group VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is enabled on the switch.
GVRP is a protocol that allows members to dynamically join VLANs. The switch’s
GVRP settings can be changed on the Switch GVRP window (
Advanced Setup
VLAN Configurations
Switch GVRP
).
IGMP Snooping
This indicates if Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) Snooping is enabled on
the switch. When enabled, this feature instructs the switch to read IGMP packets being
forwarded through the switch in order to obtain forwarding information from them (learn
which ports contain Multicast members). The switch’s IGMP snooping state can be
changed on the IGMP Snooping State window (
Advanced Setup
Multicast
Configuration
IGMP Snooping Global
).
SSH
This indicates if the Secure Shell protocol is currently enabled on the switch.
TELNET
This indicates if a Telnet connection is currently enabled on the switch.
WEB
This indicates if the Web manager is currently enabled on the switch.
RMON
This indicates if RMON is enabled on the switch.

Basic Switch Setup
Figure 6- 2.
Basic Switch Setup window
This window is used to enter name, location, and contact information, as well as to determine whether the switch should get
its IP Address settings from the user (
Manual
), a
BOOTP
server, or a
DHCP
server. If you are not using either BOOTP or
DHCP, enter the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway of the switch. If you enable BOOTP, you do not need to
configure any IP parameters because a BOOTP server automatically assigns IP configuration parameters to the switch. If
you enable DHCP, a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol request will be sent when the switch is powered up. Once you
have selected a setting under Get IP From, click
Apply
to activate the new settings.
The information is described as follows:
Parameter
Description
Get IP From
There are three choices for how the switch receives its IP Address settings:
Manual
,
BOOTP
, and
DHCP
.
IP Address
The host address for the device on the TCP/IP network.
