Access the Switch From a Mobile Device
Although you can access the switch management interface from the IP address at which you discovered
the switch in your network (see
Access the Switch and Discover the IP Address of the Switch
on page 11),
that IP address could change if the DHCP server issues another IP address to the switch. If you set up a
fixed IP address (see
Set Up a Fixed IP Address for the Switch
on page 13), you can then bookmark the
web page for that IP address to quickly access the management interface on your mobile device.
To access the switch from a mobile device:
1.
Open a web browser, and in the address bar, type the IP address of the switch.
2.
For easy access to the management interface, bookmark the page on your mobile device.
3.
Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The Home page displays.
