Set up a fixed IP address for the switch by connecting
directly to the switch off-network
In the unlikely situation that the switch is not connected to a network, or for some reason
you cannot connect to the switch over a network connection, you can change the IP
address of the switch by using an Ethernet cable and making a direct connection to the
switch.
To disable the DHCP client of the switch and change the IP address of the switch
to a fixed IP address by using a direct connection:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to an Ethernet port on the switch.
2. Change the IP address of your computer to be in the same subnet as the default IP
address of the switch.
The default IP address of the switch is 192.168.0.239. This means that you must
change the IP address of the computer to be on the same subnet as the default IP
address of the switch (192.168.0.x).
The method to change the IP address on your computer depends on the operating
system of your computer.
3. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the switch directly through
an Ethernet cable.
4. Enter
192.168.0.239
as the IP address of the switch.
The login page displays.
