To access the Web Quick Start:
1. Use a Category 5 (Cat 5) or higher Ethernet cable to connect the switch directly to a PC that has
a web browser.
2. Connect the switch to an AC power source. If the green power LED is lit, the switch is receiving
power.
3. Enable the PC's NIC that is connected to the switch, if not already enabled.
4. Verify that the NIC is configured to use DHCP to obtain its IP address. You will not be able to
access the Web Quick Start if the IP address of the NIC is statically configured.
5. Use a web browser to access IP address 192.168.100.1.
This is a temporary, well-known address assigned to the unconfigured switch when you power it on. The
Web Quick Start enables you to change this address.
The first page of the Quick Start Wizard appears
6. Click Next to begin. The wizard screens guide you through the configuration steps.

of information. Do not click the browser's Refresh or Reload button at any time while
using the wizard. If you do click Refresh or Reload, all the information you have entered
in the wizard will be cleared.
