Network Interface Card (NIC) in the workstation.
b
Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to one of
the front panel ports on the Switch.

Configuring the Workstation with IP Information
You need to change the IP address and subnet mask of the workstation
that you have connected to the Switch. Make a note of the existing
settings so you can return to them later. Change the workstation to the
following settings:
■
IP address —
169.254.100.99
■
Subnet mask —
255.255.0.0
Setting Up the Switch with IP Information
You are now ready to manually set up the Switch with IP information.
You can do this using the Web interface or the command line interface
(CLI) via telnet.
Using the Web Interface
1
Power-up the Switch. This takes approximately one minute.
2
Open a suitable Web browser and enter
169.254.100.100
in the
Location Address
field. This is the default IP address that is automatically
assigned to an offline unit.
