Configuring the Switch
Changing the PC’s IP Address
Note If you enable DHCP for IP network configuration, the switch must be
connected to the same network as the DHCP server. You will need to access
your DHCP server to determine the IP address assigned to the switch.
8. Click Maintenance > Save Configuration and save your settings to retain
them when the switch is rebooted.
No other configuration changes are required at this stage, but it is
recommended that you configure an administrator password before logging
out. From the menu, click Maintenance, then Password Manager. Fill in all the
fields before clicking on the Apply button.
You are done with preconfiguration. Disconnect the LAN cable.
Be sure to return your PC to its original network settings for your network.
Note If you cannot remember the switch’s IP address or password, you can restore
the factory default settings by following the procedure described in the
“Troubleshooting” section.

later.
4. On the General tab, click Use the following IP address.

IP address. For example, enter 192.168.2.12.
