The utility is provided on the resource CD and only supported on

Windows now.

Using the Web-based GUI

1.

2.

Prepare your computer with a static IP address 192.168.0.x ("x" ranges from 2 to 254), and a subnet mask 255.255.255.0.

Visit the Web-based GUI with the default IP address of the switch http://192.168.0.1

, and log in with admin as both user name and password. Then configure the switch on the GUI.

2. The resource CD home screen will appear. If not, double click AutoRun.exe

on the resource CD. Then click Install
