Set Up the Product Initially with Express Setup
The switch can operate without an IP address assigned to it. However, without an IP address, your switch will run as an unmanaged switch, and is limited to using only the status indicators on the switch front panel for diagnostics. We recommend when you first set up the switch, use Express Setup to enter the initial IP address. Doing this enables the switch to be used as a managed switch.
Before You Begin
Do the following to configure your computer:
- Disable any wireless interface running on your personal computer.
- Disable other networks in your system.
- Set your computer to automatically determine its IP address (DHCP) versus statically configured.
- Disable any static DNS servers.
- Disable browser proxy settings. Typically, browser settings are in Tools > Internet Options > Connections >LAN Settings.
What You Need
Have the following equipment available to set up the switch:
- A personal computer with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, or Windows Vista operating system installed
- A supported web browser (Internet Explorer 9.0, 10.0, and 11.0, or Firefox 25, 26) with JavaScript enabled
- A straight-through or crossover Category 5 Ethernet cable to connect your personal computer to the switch
Run Express Setup
To run Express Setup, follow these steps.
- Make sure that at least one switch Ethernet port is available for Express Setup.
Do not use the console port for Express Setup.
During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your personal computer has a static IP address, change your personal computer settings before you begin to temporarily use DHCP.
- Apply power to the switch.
When the switch powers on, it begins its power on sequence. The power on sequence takes approximately 60 seconds to complete. - Make sure that the power on sequence has completed by verifying that the EIP Mod and Setup status indicators are flashing green. If the switch fails the power on sequence, the EIP Mod status indicator turns red.
- Press and release the Express Setup button shown in Figure 1. Wait for a few seconds until the status indicator on one of the unconnected switch ports flashes green.
This button is recessed 16 mm (0.63 in.) behind the front panel. Use a small tool, such as a paper clip, to reach the button.
![Running Express Setup - Step 1]( "Allen-Bradley - Stratix 5700 - Running Express Setup - Step 1")
Figure 1 - Express Setup Button - Connect a Category 5 Ethernet cable from the flashing switch port to the Ethernet port on your personal computer.
TIP If you wait too long to connect the cable, the Setup status indicator turns off.
The port status indicators on your personal computer and on the switch both flash while the switch configures the connection. - While the Setup status indicator flashes green, start an Internet browser session on the personal computer and navigate to http://169.254.0.1. If you have a home page configured, the switch configuration loads instead of your normal home page. The switch prompts you for the default switch username and password.
- Enter the default switch password: switch. The default user name is admin.
In some scenarios, the switch requires you to enter the switch password multiple times before it accepts the password.
- If the Express setup window does not appear, do the following:
- Enter the URL of a well-known website in your browser to be sure the browser is working correctly. Your browser then automatically redirects to the Express Setup web page.
- Verify that any proxy settings or pop-up blockers are disabled on your browser.
- Verify that any wireless interface is disabled on your personal computer.
- Complete the fields shown in Figure 2. To view fields for Common Industrial Protocol (CIP), you must click Advanced Settings (refer to Table 1).

Figure 2 - Express Setup Window
| Table 1 - Express Setup Fields | |
| Field | Description |
| Network Settings | |
| Host Name | The name of the device. |
| Management Interface (VLAN ID) | The name and ID of the management VLAN through which the switch is managed. Choose an existing VLAN to be the management VLAN. The default ID is 1. The default name for the management VLAN is default. The number can be from 1... 1001. Be sure that the switch and your network management station are in the same VLAN. Otherwise, you lose management connectivity to the switch. The management VLAN is the broadcast domain through which management traffic is sent between specific users or devices. It provides broadcast control and security for management traffic that must be limited to a specific group of users, such as the administrators of your network. It also provides secure administrative access to all devices in the network at all times. |
| IP Assignment Mode | The IP Assignment mode determines whether the switch IP Information is manually assigned (static) or is automatically assigned by a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The default is Static. We recommend that you click Static and manually assign the IP address for the switch. You can then use the same IP address whenever you want to access the Device Manager web interface. |
| IP Address | The IP address and associated subnet mask are unique identifiers for the switch in a network:
This field is enabled only if the IP Assignment mode is Static. |
| Default Gateway (optional) | The IP address for the default gateway. A gateway is a router or a dedicated network device that enables the switch to communicate with devices in other networks or subnetworks. The default gateway IP address must be part of the same subnet as the switch IP address. The switch IP address and the default gateway IP address cannot be the same. If all of your devices are in the same network and the default gateway is not used, you do not need to enter an IP address in this field. This field is enabled only if the IP assignment mode is Static. You must specify a default gateway if your network management station and the switch are in different networks or subnetworks. Otherwise, the switch and your network management station cannot communicate with each other. |
| NTP Server | The IP address of the Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. NTP is a networking protocol for clock synchronization between computer systems over packet switched, variable-latency data networks. |
| User | Enter the user name. |
| Password, Confirm Password | The password for the switch can have up to 63 alphanumeric characters, can start with a number, is case-sensitive, and can have embedded spaces. The password cannot be a single digit, it cannot contain a? or a tab, and it does not allow spaces at the beginning or the end. The default is switch. To complete initial setup, you must change the password from the default password, switch. This password is also used as the Control Industrial Protocol (CIP) security password. We recommend that you provide a password to the switch to secure access to the device manager. |
| Advanced Settings | |
| CIP VLAN | The VLAN on which Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) is enabled. The CIP VLAN can be the same as the management VLAN or you can isolate CIP traffic on another VLAN that is already configured on this device. |
| IP Address | The IP address and subnet mask for the CPI VLAN if the CIP VLAN is different from the management VLAN. The format is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers separated by periods. Each number can be from 0...255. Make sure that the IP address that you assign to this device is not being used by another device in your network. |
| Same As Management VLAN | Indicates whether the settings for the CIP VLAN are the same as the management VLAN. |
| Telnet, CIP and Enable Password (optional), Confirm Password | This is the password used for Telnet and CIP security. |
| Same As Admin Password | Sets the password used for Telnet and CIP security to the same user password specified under Network Settings. |
- Click Submit.
The switch initializes its configuration for typical industrial EtherNet/IP applications. The switch then redirects you to the logon page for the Device Manager web interface. You can continue to launch the Device Manager web interface for further configuration or exit the application. - Turn off DC power at the source, disconnect all cables to the switch, and install the switch in your network.
- After you complete Express Setup, refresh the personal computer IP address:
- For a dynamically-assigned IP address, disconnect the personal computer from the switch, and reconnect the personal computer to the network. The network DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the personal computer.
- For a statically-assigned IP address, change it to the previously configured IP address.
For information on more advanced configuration options, see the Stratix 5700 Ethernet Managed Switches User Manual, publication 1783-UM004-EN-P.
Assigning the Smartports Using the Device Manager Web Interface
(Optional)
After you complete Express Setup, you can manage the switch by using the Device Manager Web interface supplied with the switch.
Before You Begin
Complete the steps for the Express Setup in Set Up the Product Initially with Express Setup Chapter.
What You Need
Have the following equipment available to set up the switch:
- A personal computer with Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, or Windows Vista operating system installed

To access the Device Manager Web Interface, follow these steps.
- Launch a Web browser on your workstation.
- Enter the switch IP address in the Web browser and click Enter.
- Enter the user name and password.
Smartports
Smartports are recommended configurations for the switch ports. These configurations, referred to as port roles, optimize the switch connections and provide security, transmission quality, and reliability for traffic from the switch ports. The port roles also help prevent port misconfigurations.
TIP
Use Smartport roles immediately after the initial setup of the switch to correctly configure the switch ports before they connect to devices.
Configure Smartports
To assign Smartport roles to switch ports, from the Configure menu, choose Smartports.
Figure 4 - Configure Menu
Follow these guidelines when using Smartport roles:
- Before using Smartport roles, decide which switch port is connected to which device type.
- Before attaching a device to the port or reconnecting devices that have been moved, verify which Smartport role is applied to a port.
We recommend that you do not change port settings after enabling a Smartport role on a port. Any port setting changes can alter the effectiveness of the Smartport role.
- When the user attempts to apply a port role to a routed port in the Smartports window, this error message appears:
A port role cannot be configured on a routed port.
To apply a Smartport role, follow this procedure.
- From the Configure menu, choose Smartports.
- Select a port.
- Choose a Smartport role from the pull-down menu in the Role column.
- Click Save.
Optimize Ports Through Smartports Port Roles
The port roles are based on the type of devices to be connected to the switch ports. For example, the Desktop for Automation port role is specifically for switch ports to be connected to desktop and laptop /computers. Refer to Table 2 for a list of available ports.
| Table 2 - Available Ports | |
