2. If the IP address is assigned by a DHCP server, make sure the DHCP server is running and can be reached from the switch and the computer. It might be necessary to disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP server.
   NOTE: Details on how to change the IP address on your computer depend upon the type of architecture and operating system you are using. Use the computer Help and Support functionality to search for "IP Addressing."

Access the managed switch:

1. Open a web browser window.
2. Enter the switch IP address in the address bar and press Enter. For example, http://192.168.1.254. The Switch Login Page displays.
3. Enter the default login information:
   • Username is cisco
   • Default password is cisco (passwords are case-sensitive)
4. Click Log In. If this is the first time that you have logged on with the default username and password, the Change Password page opens. The rules for constructing a new password are displayed on the page.

5. Enter a new password and confirm the password.
   NOTE: Password complexity is enabled by default. The password must comply with the default complexity rules.
6. Click Apply.

Make sure that any configuration changes made are saved before exiting from the web-based interface by clicking on the Save icon. Exiting, rebooting or losing power before you save your configuration will result in all changes being lost.
The Getting Started window displays. You are now ready to configure the switch. Refer to your Administration Guide for further information.
