Control the port LEDs
You can turn the port LEDs on the switch on and off by using the device UI.
By default, a port LED lights when you connect a powered-on device to the port. When
the switch functions with its LEDs off, we refer to it as Stealth Mode.
To control the port LEDs through the device UI:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the device management password.
The password is the one that you specified the first time that you logged in. The
password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
4. Select Port LEDs.
The Port LEDs button displays.
5. Disable or enable the port LEDs by clicking the button.
When the port LEDs are enabled, the button bar displays green. When the ports
LEDs are disabled (Stealth Mode), the button bar displays gray.
6. Click the APPLY button.
Your settings are saved.
Change the switch device name
By default, the device name of the switch is the same as the model number. This device
name shows in, for example, Windows Explorer and Bonjour. You can change the device
name, which can be up to 20 characters.
To change the device name of the switch:
1.
Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the
switch, or connected directly to the switch through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the device management password.
