b. Locate the IP address assigned by your DHCP server by accessing your router
or DHCP server; see your DHCP server instructions for information. Make sure
that your DHCP server is running and can be reached.
STEP 4
Set up the IP configuration on your computer.
•
If the switch is using the default static IP address of
192.168.1.254
, you
must choose an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.253 that
is not already in use.
•
If the IP addresses will be assigned by DHCP, make sure that your DHCP
server is running and can be reached from the switch and the computer. You
may need to disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their
new IP addresses from the DHCP server.
NOTE
Details on how to change the IP address on your computer depend upon the
type of architecture and operating system that you are using. Use your computers
local Help and Support functionality and search for “IP Addressing.”
STEP 5
Open a web browser window. If you are prompted to install an Active-X plug-in
when connecting to the switch, follow the prompts to accept the plug-in.
STEP 6
Enter the IP address of the switch that you are configuring in the address bar on
the browser, and then press
Enter
. For example,
http://192.168.1.254
.
