Hi,



you should use a console connection, and log-in like that :





Login authentication





Username:admin

Password:(default is no password)

<5500G-EI>sys

System View: return to User View with Ctrl+Z.

display interface Vlan-interface 1

Vlan-interface1 current state :UP

Line protocol current state :UP

IP Sending Frames' Format is PKTFMT_ETHNT_2, Hardware address is 001e-c174-c481

Internet Address is 192.168.150.252/24 Primary

Description : Vlan-interface1 Interface

The Maximum Transmit Unit is 1500







If nothing is configure, you need to type this :



interface Vlan-interface 1

ip address 1.2.3.4 255.255.255.0

(use your address and mask)



then add your default route :





ip route-static 0.0.0.0 0 192.168.0.254

(with the last address beeing your default-router)



Have fun with your 3com switch :)
