3. Click Continue in the Confirmation screen.
A browser window opens and loads the configuration wizard from the switch. This process
might take a few minutes. The EZSwitchSetup Switch Configuration wizard launches and the
Switch Configuration Welcome screen displays.
If your switch discovery fails, see Figure 2 on page 12 for details on how to recover your switch.
To set up the switch IP addresses using DHCP
1. On the DHCP server, query the DHCP server for the DHCP IP address that was distributed to the
switch using the MAC address.
You can find the MAC address on the switch’s manufacturing documentation. If you are unsure
of how to query the DHCP server, ask your system or network administrator for help.
2. In the wizard, enter the IP address from the DHCP server into the proper fields.
3. From a workstation on the network, use the ping command to verify that the switch is
reachable on the network.
4. Click Continue in the confirmation screen.
If EZSetup does not launch on clicking Continue, launch it manually by specifying the URL
http://<switch-ip> in a browser.
If your switch discovery fails, see Figure 2 on page 12 for details on how to recover your switch.
