Preparing for Access
IP Addressing
If the AMS-2624P is connected to a network with a 192.168.0.X address
scheme, and your computer shares a similar address on the same network,
you can skip to the next step,
Access and Setup
.
n
Note:
If another device on your network shares the 192.168.0.4
address, you’ll need to temporarily reassign or remove that
device while you configure the AMS-2624P.
If your network uses an address scheme other than 192.168.0.X, you’ll need
to set a temporary static IP address on the computer you’re using for
configuration. To do so, set the IP address of your computer to an address
in the 192.168.0.X range, then set the Gateway/Router address to 192.168.0.4
(the default IP address of the AMS-2624P).
Once you’re finished configuring the switch, you can return your comput-
er’s IP configuration to normal, typically “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”

Rear Panel
The rear panel of the AMS-2624P Switch includes 1 console port, 24 1000Mbps
RJ45 and 2 RJ-45/SFP combo ports, as well as LED indicators for each port. Each
1000Mbps port has one Link/Activity/PoE LED. A mode/reset button switches
the display between Link/Activity and PoE modes.
AMS-2624P Back Panel View
LED Indicators
The LED indicators on the AMS-2624P include System, Link/Act and PoE LEDs,
and an LED for each port. These LED indicators show the operating status of
the AMS-2624P and each port connection.
Mode/Reset Button to Change LED Functionality
Tapping the Mode/Reset button briefly switches the port indicator between
displaying port link speed and PoE status.
The following chart shows the LED indicators of the AMS-2624P along with an
explanation of the indicator’s properties:
