Resolve a Subnet Conflict to Access the Switch

If you power on the switch before you connect it to a network that includes a DHCP server,
the switch uses its own default IP address of 192.168.0.239. This subnet might be different
from the subnet used in your network. You might see the following message if you try to use
the ProSAFE utility to access the switch:
The switch and manager IP address are not in the same subnet.

To fix this subnet conflict:
1. Disconnect the Ethernet cable between the switch and your network.
2. Unplug the switch's power cord.
3. Reconnect the Ethernet cable between the switch and your network.
4. Plug the switch's power cord into an electrical outlet.
The switch powers on. The network DCHP server discovers the switch and assigns it an
IP address that is in the correct subnet for the network.
