Booting the Switch for the first time
The very first time the device is booted the following screen appears after the
Power On Self Test.
Since the default configuration enables the Bootp Request, the device is
asking for its IP parameters from the network Bootp server.
If the administrator has assigned an IP address to the switch in the network
Bootp server and the Switch successfully receives this information, the
following screen will appear briefly, then the download procedure will
continue automatically.
If you have no Bootp server connected, you will see following screen. You
have to disable the Bootp request and assign IP parameters to the switch
manually.
