Add or Change the Name Label for a Port

By default, only ports 1, 9, and 10 contain a port name label:
• Port 1. Uplink
• Port 9. Media Streaming
• Port 10. Gaming
You can change these name labels. Other ports do not contain name labels, but you can add them. Adding
or changing a name label does not change the nature of a port, that is, it is just a label.
To add or change a name label for a port:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the switch or to the
switch directly through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
The PORT STATUS pane displays on the right or the bottom of the HOME page, depending on the size
of your browser window.
A port that is in use shows as CONNECTED. A port that is not in use shows as AVAILABLE. A port that
is disabled shows as DISABLED.
4. Select the port.
