3.1 IP Address & Password
The IP Address is an identification of the switch in a TCP/IP network. Each switch should be designated a new
and unique IP address in the network. The switch is shipped with the following factory default settings for
software management:
Default
IP address of the switch: 192.168.0.2 / 255.255.255.0
Fixed Username: admin
No password
The switch uses local authentication instead of RADIUS authentication with factory defaults. No password is
required with the factory default. However, the password is used for local authentication in accessing the
switch via console, telnet and Http web-based interface. For security reasons, it is recommended that the
default settings for the switch be changed before deploying it to your network.
3.2 Configuring IP Address & Password via Web Interface
Start Web Browser
Start your browser software and enter the default IP address to which you want to connect. The IP address is
used as a URL for the browser software to search the device.
URL: http:/192.168.0.2/
Login to the switch
When the browser software connects to the switch successfully, a Login screen is provided for you to login to
the device as shown below:
