Running Express Setup
Running Express Setup
You should use Express Setup to enter the initial IP information. This enables the switch to connect
to local routers and the Internet. You can access the switch through the IP address for further
configuration.
Note To use the CLI-based initial setup program, see Appendix C, “Configuring the Switch with the
CLI-Based Setup Program,” in the switch hardware guide.
You need this equipment:
• PC with Windows Vista, XP, or 2000
• Browser (Internet Explorer 5.5, 6.0, 7.0, Firefox 1.5, 2.0, 3.0 or later) with JavaScript enabled
• Straight-through or crossover Category 5 Ethernet cable
Note Before running Express Setup, disable any pop-up blockers or proxy settings in your browser and any
wireless client running on your PC.
Step 1
Make sure that nothing is connected to the switch.
Step 2
During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your PC has a static IP address, temporarily change your
PC settings before you use DHCP.
Note Write down the static IP address. You will need this IP address in Step 13.
