5. Verify Switch Operation
Verify basic switch operation by checking the system LEDs.
When operating normally, the Power and Diag LEDs should
be on green.
6. Connect to the Web User Interface
To access the web interface, connect a PC directly to a switch RJ-45
port. Set the PC’s IP address to be on the same subnet as the switch
(that is, the PC and switch addresses must both start 192.168.2.x
with subnet mask 255.255.255.0). In a web browser, enter the
switch’s default management IP address of 192.168.2.10 to access
the web login page.
Alternatively, you can connect to the switch console port and use
the command-line interface (CLI) to assign an IP address to the
switch’s default VLAN (see following section “Setting an IP Address
Using the CLI”).
Note:
For further information on switch configuration, refer
to the
Web Management Guide
and
CLI Reference Guide
.
a. Setting an IP Address Using the CLI
Connect a PC to the switch console port using the included
RJ-45 to DB-9 console cable.
Configure the PC’s serial port: 115200 bps, 8 characters, no
parity, one stop bit, 8 data bits, and no flow control.

Log in to the CLI using default settings: Username “admin”
and password “admin.” Enter the following CLI commands
to set an IP address for VLAN 1.
Console#configure
Console(config)#interface vlan 1
Console(config-if)#ip address 192.168.1.5
255.255.255.0
7. Connect Network Cables
For RJ-45 ports, connect 100-ohm Category 5, 5e or better
twisted-pair cable.
For the SFP slots, first install SFP transceivers and then
connect fiber optic cabling to the transceiver ports.
The following transceivers are supported:
◆
1000BASE-SX
◆
1000BASE-LX
◆
1000BASE-ZX
◆
1000BASE-LHX
As connections are made, check the port status LEDs to be
sure the links are valid. Press the Mode button to change
from Ethernet to PoE status:
◆
On/Blinking Green — Port has a valid link. Blinking
indicates network activity.
◆
On Amber — Port is supplying PoE power.
