View source for Assigning an IP Address to a Switch

1. Select the default VLAN interface

   config t
   interface Vlan1

2. Assign an appropriate IP and enable the interface

   ip address 192.168.X.X 255.255.255.0
   no shutdown
   exit

3. Set the default gateway

   ip default-gateway 192.168.X.X
   exit


'''NOTE:''' If ports are using a different VLAN, for instance VLAN5, then you will have to create new VLAN interface and assign the IP to it to make this work.
