ProSAFE 8-Port and 16-Port Gigabit Click Switch
Specify IP Address Settings for the Switch
By default, the switch IP address works as follows:
• If you cable the switch to a network with a DHCP server before you power on the switch,
the DHCP server assigns an IP address to the switch when the switch is powered on.
• If you power on the switch when it is not connected to a network with a DHCP server
, the
switch uses its default IP address, which is 192.168.0.239.
You can disable the DHCP mode feature in the switch and enter IP address and subnet
mask values for the switch as well as the address of the gateway device used by the
switch.
Use the ProSAFE Utility to Specify the Switch IP Address
To specify IP address settings for the switch:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection.
2. Double-click the ProSAFE Plus Utility icon.
The configuration home screen displays a list of Plus switches that it discovers on the
local network.
3. Select a switch.
If you do not see the switch, click the REFRESH button.
4. Click the IP SETTING button.
5. In the DHCP Mode menu, select Disable.
The IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address fields are enabled.
6. Enter the IP address, subnet mask, and if available, the gateway address.

Y button.
Your settings are saved.
