(Read-Only)

See the base physical address of the switch module.

IP Address

See the IP address for the switch module. To set the IP address, refer to 

. The IP address can also be set through Runtime IP 

Address Discovery.

Runtime IP Address Discovery enables the switch module to 
automatically accept an IP address from a Boot Strap Protocol (BootP) 
server on the network without requiring a user to enter an IP address 
through Local Management.

Subnet Mask 
(Modifiable)

See the subnet mask for the switch module. A subnet mask “masks 
out” the network bits of the IP address by setting the bits in the mask to 
1 when the network treats the corresponding bits in the IP address as 
part of the network or subnetwork address, or to 0 if the corresponding 
bit identifies the host. When an IP address is entered in the IP Address 
field, the Subnet Mask field automatically changes to the default subnet 
mask for that IP address. For details about how to change the subnet 
mask from its default value, refer to
