Installation Guide Switches
Using the activation code
Open LANconfig and select the desired device or devices and click the
Cloud icon in the menu bar.
In the dialog window that opens, enter the activation code that you
generated previously and click the button OK.
4 If you copied an activation code to the Clipboard, it is automatically
entered into the field.
Once the device is paired with the LANCOM Management Cloud, it is
available in the project for further configuration.
Zero-touch & auto configuration
A LANCOM device in its factory settings will initially try to contact the LMC.
If it succeeds, i.e. the device has Internet access, then the LMC can check
whether the device is already assigned to a project. In this case, it rolls out
the auto-configuration created by software-defined networking (SDN) to the
device.
This eliminates the basic configuration and the switch immediately receives
the correct configuration. What this means is that you do not actually have to
carry out any on-site configuration of the switches, i.e. "zero touch" for the
administrator.
The automatic contact attempts to the LMC deactivate automatically after
24 hours. Alternatively, you can also disable them in WEBconfig.
