The Concept of Subnet
Under the TCP/IP environment, network devices must be on the same subnet in order to
see each other. This means before you can configure the switch through web browser,
your must set your computer to the same subnet as the switch. For two network devices
to be on the same subnet, they must have the following 2 criteria
:
Their IP address must be on the same subnet. For example, if one IP address is
192.168.2.1. The other’s IP address must be 192.168.2.x (x is any number between 2
and 254) for Class C subnet. To find out the IP address information for your computer.
Under WinNT/2000/XP, please open Command Line window and type “ipconfig”.
Under Win9x, please run “winipcfg”.
They must have the same subnet mask. For example, if one machine is
255.255.255.0. The other machine must also set to the same 255.255.255.0 mask.
Configure your computer’s IP
Before accessing the switch through web browse, please follow the instruction below to
