Configuring Your Switch Using the Web-based Interface

To access the switch with a web-based interface, you must know the IP
address that the switch is using. The default configuration of the switch is
to use its factory default IP address of 192.168.1.254 by default.
When the switch is using the factory default IP address, the System LED
flashes continuously. When the switch is using a DHCP server-assigned IP
address or an administrator has configured a static IP address, the System
LED is on solid (DHCP is enabled by default).
If you are managing the switch through a network connection and

the switch IP address is changed, either by a DHCP server or manually,
your access to the switch will be lost. You must enter the new IP address
that the switch is using into your browser to use the web-based
interface. If you are managing the switch through a console port
connection, the link is retained.
To configure the switch using the web-based interface:
Power on the computer and your switch.

b. If the IP addresses will be assigned by DHCP, make sure that
your DHCP server is running and can be reached from the
switch and the computer. You may need to disconnect and
reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP
addresses from the DHCP server.
