Forgotten Password

If you forget the password to the Web interface after
you set it, you will need to reset the Switch to regain
access. See "Resetting to Factory Defaults"
page 51 for instructions. After resetting the Switch,
you can log on to the Web interface again using the
default admin account settings:
User name –

admin
Password – blank (no password)

Forgotten Static IP Address

If you forget the static IP address that you assigned to
the Switch and you need to access the Web interface,
use the Discovery application to automatically detect
the IP address and connect to the interface.
For information on using the Discovery application,
refer to "Running the Discovery Application"
page 23.
