II-2. Preparation for Web Interface
The management web page allows you to use a web browser (such as Microsoft IE, Google Chrome, or
Mozilla Firefox) to configure and monitor the switch from anywhere on the network.
Before using the web interface to manage your switch, please verify that your switch and your PC are on
the same network. Please follow the steps down below to configure your PC properly:
1. Verify that the network interface card (NIC) of your PC is operational and properly installed, and
that your operating system supports TCP/IP protocol.
2. Connect your PC with the switch via an RJ45 cable.
3. The default IP address of the switch is 192.168.2.1. The switch and your PC should locate within
the same IP Subnet. Change your PC's IP address to 192.168.2.X, where X can be any number from
2 to 254. Please make sure that the IP address you’ve assigned to your PC cannot be the same with
the switch.
4. Launch the web browser (IE, Firefox, or Chrome) on your PC.
5. Type 192.168.2.1 (or the IP address of the switch) in the web browsers URL field, and press Enter.
