Step 4. Click on “Use the following IP address” button and enter the computer’s
address manually. This IP address must be on the same subnet as the
switch but different from the switch’s IP. Please make sure the IP is not
used by other network device. If the switch’s IP address is of factory’s
default value. We recommend enter the following for computer’s IP:
IP Address: 192.168.2.50
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.2.1
Click “Ok” after finish entering the IP.
*Note1: An alternative method is to change the switch’s IP to the same subnet as the
computer. Please use console-port management to change switch’s IP.
*Note2: If IP address of the switch is lost, please use console port management to find the
switch’s IP address.
*Note3: The POE-FSH8PW has DHCP client ability. This allows DHCP server (or router) to
assign IP automatically. However, we do not recommend turning on the DHCP client
because the DHCP server assign the IP randomly. The DHCP client should be used only
when connecting directly to Cable Modem (for remote management) whose service
provider uses DHCP for IP assignment.
Now, you will be able to access the switch by typing in the switch’s IP address on the web
browser.
4.2 Remote Management
In this section, you will learn how to setup your computer and the router for remote web
management. Remote management allows MIS to manage a switch from outside of the
switch’s IP domain or from Internet. Depending on the type of Internet connection you have,
there are two ways to setup the switch to be available through Internet.
