Note: These instructions assume you are using DHCP in your network. If you are

using static IP addressing in your network, configure the switch IP address before

default to 192.168.0.239 for its IP address. To configure the switch before

connecting it to your network, set up the PC with an IP address in the 192.168.0.x

subnet, and connect the PC to the switch. Then, use the Smartwizard Discovery

utility as illustrated below to configure the switch.

1. Connect each PC to an RJ-45 network port on the Switch front panel. Use

category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an RJ-45

connector to make these connections.

Address, IP Address, and model number. If you cannot configure your switch,

verify that the cable connections are secure, that the IP address configuration of

the PC is in the same subnet as the switch, and click the Discover button.

Troubleshooting Tips

Here are some tips for correcting simple problems you may have.

Be sure to power on your PC and smart switch in the correct sequence.

Follow this sequence. Turn off the smart switch and computer. First, turn on the

smart switch and wait two minutes. Next turn on the computer.

Make sure the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.

For each powered on computer connected to the smart switch with a securely

plugged in Ethernet cable, the corresponding smart switch LAN port status light

will be lit.

Make sure the network settings of the computer are correct.

In most cases, computers should be configured to obtain an IP address

automatically via DHCP. For help with this, please see the animated tutorials on

the CD or the Reference Manual Appendix C on the CD.

If your network uses static IP addresses, be sure the switch and computer are

configured with valid IP addresses.
