following methods:
• Using a hub or switch between a PC and the device:
•
Connect the network
interface on your PC to a port on a network hub / switch, using a standard
Ethernet cable. Connect the device to another port on the same network hub /
switch, using another standard Ethernet cable.
Direct connection between a PC and the device:
2. Change your PC’s IP address and subnet mask to correspond with the device's factory
default IP address and subnet mask
Connect the network
interface on your PC directly to the device, using an Ethernet crossover cable.
(for default IP addresses, refer to Assigning an IP
Address on page 35)

(URL) field, enter the device's default IP address (e.g., http://10.1.10.10); the Web
interface's 'Enter Network Password' dialog box appears, as shown in the figure
