Connect any switch port to an Ethernet network. Note that if the device is
configured over a network, the IP address of the management workstation
should belong to the same IP network. For example, if the default IP address of
the switch is 192.168.0.1, then the IP address of the workstation should be
192.168.0.x (where x is a number from 2 to 254); the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0.
Open the web browser and enter the IP address http://192.168.0.1.

6.3 User name and password setting
Until the "user name" and "password" are set, you will log in without entering
this data. After the password is set, you will need to authenticate when you log
in.

IMPORTANT!
Note that the user name and password are case sensitive.
6.4 Activation of redundancy protocols
If you connect the switches into a ring, then you need to enable the RSTP
protocol. Otherwise, if there are alternative paths, your network will not be
functional. By default, RSTP is turned off.
