Set Up a Fixed IP Address for the Switch Through a Network
Connection
If the switch and your computer are connected to the same network (which is the most the likely situation),
you can change the IP address of the switch through a network connection.
To disable the DHCP client of the switch and change the IP address of the switch to a fixed
IP address by using a network connection:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the switch.
2.
Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page opens.
3.
Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The Home page displays.
The previous figure shows the right pane (or, depending on the size of your browser page, the middle
pane) of the Home page.
