Fast Setup Mode
This allows you to perform initial configuration of the switch using your Web browser.
Fast Setup Mode can be activated when the switch is in Factory Default. When started up
in this mode, the switch assigns itself an IP address and also assigns an IP address to the
connected PC. This makes it possible to initiate a Web session and the use of the Fast
Setup configurator. Switches are shipped in Factory default mode. Refer to the Quick Start
