The switch is shipped with a pre-assigned IP address of 192.168.1.1. After
your initial login, Allied Telesis suggests that you assign a new IP address
to your switch.
To manually assign an IP address to the switch, refer to "Configuration of
IPv4 Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address" on page 30. To
configure the switch to obtain its IP configuration from a DHCP server,
refer to "DHCP Client Configuration" on page 56.
Whether you use the pre-assigned IP address or assign a new one, you
must set your local PC to the same subnet as the switch.
To start a web browser management session, perform the following
procedure:
1. Start your web browser.
2. In the URL field of the browser, enter 192.168.1.1. See Figure 1.
