Connecting to a Front Panel Port

You can manually configure the Switch IP information in the following ways:

Connecting to a front panel port — Connect a workstation using an Ethernet cable to a front panel port of the Switch. You can then manually enter IP information using the web interface or the command line interface (CLI).
