Step 4.
Click on “
Use the following IP address
” button and enter the computer’s
IP address manually. This IP address must be on the same subnet as the
switch but different from the switch’s IP. Please make sure the IP is not
used by other network device. If the switch’s IP address is with factory’s
default value, please enter the following for computer’s IP:
IP Address:
192.168.2.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway:
192.168.2.1
Click “
Ok
” after finish entering the IP.
*Note1:
An alternative configuration is to change the switch IP address into the
same subnet as the computer. This can be done in the Section 4.3
Admistrator for setting new switch IP address.
*Note2:
The PoE Switch has DHCP client ability. This allows DHCP server (or
router) to assign IP automatically. However, we do not recommend turning
on the DHCP client because the DHCP server assign the IP randomly.
The DHCP client should be used only when connecting directly to Cable
Modem (for remote management) whose service provider uses DHCP for
IP assignment.
Now, you will be able to access the switch by entering the switch’s IP
address on the web browser.
