install the LANCOM Management System LCMS (LANconfig and
LANmonitor on the data medium supplied with your product).
K With other operating systems, you have the alternative of using a Web
browser.

When connecting the Ethernet interfaces, please ensure that the two
devices being connected (e.g. switch and LANCOM) both have the
same setting for auto mode. If a LANCOM is connected to a switch
that does not support auto mode, or if this function has been
deactivated in the switch, then auto mode must also be deactivated
