FS728TP Hardware Installation Guide
Step 6: Managing the Switch using a Web Browser or the
PC Utility
The FS728TP contains software for viewing, changing, and monitoring the way it works. This
management software is not required for the switch to work. The ports can be used without
using the management software. However, the management software enables the setup of
VLAN and Trunking features and also improves the efficiency of the switch, which results in
the improvement of its overall performance as well as the performance of the network.
After powering up the switch for the first time, the Smart Switch can be configured using a
Web browser or a program called Smart Control Center Utility. For more information about
managing the switch, see the FS728TP Series Software Administration Manual on the Smart
Switch Resource CD.
Note: When the device powers up, there is a default IP address already
configured on the device. The default IP address is with subnet
mask 192.168.0.239.
