If the switch is using the default factory IP address of 192.168.1.1,
users must choose an IP address for the computer in the range of
192.168.1.1—192.168.1.253 that is not already in use.
2.
If the IP address is assigned by a DHCP server, ensure the DHCP
server is running and can be reached from the switch and the
computer. It might be necessary to disconnect and reconnect the
devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP
server.
Step4.
Enter the username and password (The default username is “admin” and the password field
should remain empty.) Click “Login” to login on the switch configuration window.
