Discover a Switch in a Network Without a DHCP Server

This section describes how to use the Smart Control Center to set up your switch in a
network without a DHCP server. If your network does not include a DHCP service, you must
assign a static IP address to your switch.
If you prefer, you can assign the switch a static IP address even if your network does include
a DHCP server.

To assign a static IP address:
1. Connect the switch to your existing network.
2. Power on the switch by connecting its power cord.
3. Install the Smart Control Center on your computer.
4. Start the Smart Control Center.
5. Click the Discover button for the Smart Control Center to find your switch.
The utility broadcasts Layer 2 discovery packets within the broadcast domain to discover
the switch.
6. Select the switch, and then click the Configure Device button.
