as described in “Methods of Managing a Switch” on page 8.
Ensure that the switch is connected to the network using a
Category 5 twisted pair Ethernet cable with RJ-45 connectors.
A suitable Web browser.
Choosing a Browser
To display the web interface correctly, use one of the following Web
browser and platform combinations:
