Configuration Main Menu
Configuration > System
The S4224 system information is configured from the Configuration > System menu path. Here you can
configure S4224 device level Information, IP, NTP, time, and logging.
The S4224 system information parameters are explained below.
System Contact
Enter the textual identification of the contact person for this managed node, together with information
on how to contact this person. The valid string length is 0 to 255 characters, and the allowed content
is the set of ASCII characters from 32 to 126. In the ASCII code table, the characters from 32 to 126
inclusive are printable. (The ASCII characters from 0 to 32 and 127 are defined as control characters
and are not printable.) This field is blank by default.
If you delete an existing System Contact entry, the message “System Contact is empty. Do you want
to proceed anyway?” displays. Verify the action and continue operation.
System Name
Enter an administratively assigned name for this managed node. By convention, this is the node's
fully-qualified domain name. A domain name is a text string drawn from the alphabet (A-Z, a-z), digits
(0-9), minus sign (-).
No space characters are permitted as part of a name. The first character must be an alpha character,
and the first or last character must not be a minus sign. The valid string length is 0 to 255 characters.
This field is blank by default.
If you delete an existing System Name entry, the message “System Name is empty. Do you want to
proceed anyway?” displays. Verify the action and continue operation. Note that you cannot access
the S4224 by System Name via DHCP/DNS.
System Location
The physical location of this node (e.g., telephone closet, 3rd floor). The valid string length is 0 to 255
characters, and the allowed content is the set of ASCII characters from 32 to 126. In the ASCII code
table, the characters from 32 to 126 inclusive are printable. (The ASCII characters from 0 to 32 and
127 are defined as control characters and are not printable.) This field is blank by default.

IP Configuration
Configure IP basic settings, control IP interfaces and IP routes from the Configuration > System > IP
menu path. The maximum number of interfaces supported is 128 and the maximum number of routes is
32. The default System IP Configuration page is shown below.
The parameters are described below.
IP Configuration
Mode
Configure whether the IP stack should act as a Host or a Router. In Host mode, IP traffic between
interfaces will not be routed. In Router mode traffic is routed between all interfaces.
DNS Server
This setting controls the DNS name resolution done by the switch. There are four servers available
for configuration, and the index of the server presents the preference (less index has higher priority)
in doing DNS name resolution. The system selects the active DNS server from configuration in turn, if
the preferred server does not respond in five attempts. The following modes are supported:
No DNS server : No DNS server will be used.
Configured IPv4 : Explicitly provide the valid IPv4 unicast address of
the DNS Server in dotted decimal notation. Make sure the configured
DNS server could be reachable (e.g. via PING) for activating DNS
service.
Configured IPv6 : Explicitly provide the valid IPv6 unicast (except linklocal) address of the DNS
Server. Make sure the configured DNS server could be reachable (e.g. via PING6) for activating DNS
service.
From any DHCPv4 interfaces : The first DNS server offered
from a DHCPv4 lease to a DHCPv4-enabled interface is used.
From this DHCPv4 interface : Specify from which DHCPv4-enabled interface a provided DNS
server should be preferred.
From any DHCPv6 interfaces : The first DNS server offered from a DHCPv6 lease to a DHCPv6
enabled interface will be used.
From this DHCPv6 interface : Specify from which DHCPv6-enabled interface a provided DNS
server should be preferred.

DNS Proxy
When DNS proxy is enabled, system will relay DNS requests to the currently configured DNS
server, and reply as a DNS resolver to the client devices on the network.
Only IPv4 DNS proxy is now supported.
IP Interfaces
Delete
Select this option to delete an existing IP interface.
VLAN
The VLAN associated with the IP interface. Only ports in this VLAN will be able to access the IP
interface. This field is only available for input when creating a new interface.
DHCPv4 Enable
Enable the DHCPv4 client by checking this box. If this option is enabled, the system will configure the
IPv4 address and mask of the interface using the DHCPv4 protocol. The DHCPv4 client will
announce the configured System Name as hostname to provide DNS lookup.
DHCPv4 Fallback Timeout
The number of seconds for trying to obtain a DHCP lease. After this period expires, a configured IPv4
address will be used as IPv4 interface address. A value of zero disables the fallback mechanism,
such that DHCP will keep retrying until a valid lease is obtained. Legal values are 0 to 4294967295
seconds.
DHCPv4 Current Lease
For DHCP interfaces with an active lease, this column shows the current interface address, as
provided by the DHCP server.
IPv4 Address
The IPv4 address of the interface in dotted decimal notation. If DHCP is enabled, this field configures
the fallback address. The field may be left blank if IPv4 operation on the interface is not desired - or
no DHCP fallback address is desired.
IPv4 Mask Length
The IPv4 network mask, in number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are 0 - 30 bits for an IPv4
address.
If DHCP is enabled, this field configures the fallback address network mask. The field may be left
blank if IPv4 operation on the interface is not desired - or no DHCP fallback address is desired.
DHCPv6 Enable
Enable the DHCPv6 client by checking this box. If this option is enabled, the system will configure the
IPv6 address of the interface using the DHCPv6 protocol.
DHCPv6 Rapid Commit
Enable the DHCPv6 Rapid-Commit option by checking this box. If this option is enabled, the DHCPv6
client terminates the waiting process as soon as a Reply message with a Rapid Commit option is
received. This option is only manageable when a DHCPv6 client is enabled.
DHCPv6 Current Lease
For DHCPv6 interface with an active lease, this column shows the interface address provided by the
DHCPv6 server.

Transition Networks S4224 Web User Guide
33558 Rev. C https://www.transition.com Page 20 of 669
IPv6 Address
The IPv6 address of the interface. An IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields of
up to four hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example,
fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7. The symbol :: is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand
way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can appear only once.
System accepts the valid IPv6 unicast address only, except IPv4-Compatible address and IPv4-
Mapped address.
The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on the interface is not desired.
IPv6 Mask
The IPv6 network mask, in number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are between 1 and 128 bits for
an IPv6 address. The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on the interface is not desired.
Resolving IPv6 DAD
The link-local address is formed from an interface identifier based on the hardware address which is
supposed to be uniquely assigned. Once the DAD (Duplicate Address Detection) detects the address
duplication, the operation on the interface SHOULD be disabled.
At this moment, manual intervention is required to resolve the address duplication. For example,
check whether the loop occurs in the VLAN or there is indeed other device occupying the same
hardware address as the device in the VLAN.
After making sure the specific link-local address is unique on the IPv6 link in use, delete and then add
the specific IPv6 interface to restart the IPv6 operations on this interface.
IP Routes
Delete
Select this option to delete an existing IP route.
Network
The destination IP network or host address of this route. Valid format is dotted decimal notation or a
valid IPv6 notation. A default route can use the value 0.0.0.0 or IPv6 :: notation.
Mask Length
The destination IP network or host mask, in number of bits (prefix length). It defines how much of a
network address that must match, in order to qualify for this route. Valid values are 0 - 32 bits for IPv4
routes or 0 - 128 for IPv6 routes. Only a default route will have a mask length of 0 (match anything).
Gateway
The IP address of the IP gateway. Valid format is dotted decimal notation or a valid IPv6 notation.
The Gateway and Network must be of the same type.
It may be necessary to add a static route if a default gateway is required or if the device does not
reside within the same network. Routing can then be enabled at System > IP > IP Configuration.
See the Static IP Routing (SIR) User Guide, 33542 for the Static Routing function descriptions and
procedures. A default route (AKA, gateway of last resort) is the network route used by a router when
no other known route exists for an IP packet's destination address (Network = 0.0.0.0, Mask Length =
0, Gateway 10.0.1.1 as shown above).
