Before you configure this device, note that when the Web Smart Switch
is configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager
PC must be set on the same
IP network
. For example, when the default
network address of the default IP address of the Web Smart Switch is
192.168.0.1
, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x
is a number between 2 and 254), and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
