Initial Switch Configuration
Initial Switch Configuration via Web Browser
After powering up the switch for the first time, you can perform the initial switch configuration using a web
browser. For managing other switch features, refer to the Web User Guide.
To begin the initial configuration stage, you need to reconfigure your PC’s IP address and subnet mask to make
sure the PC can communicate with the switch. After changing PC’s IP address (for example, 192.168.1.250), then
you can access the Web interface of the switch using the switch’s default IP address as shown below.
Note
: You can also skip step 1 to 3, by pressing R and type ”ncpa.cpl” command to get to step 4
directly.
The initial switch configuration procedure is as follows:
•
The factory default IP address is 192.168.1.77
•
The factory default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0
