(VLAN ID)	Note Enter a new VLAN ID only if you want to change the management
	interface for the switch module. The VLAN ID range is 1 to 1001.
IP Assignment Mode	Use the default setting of Static, which means that the switch module keeps
	the IP address.
	Note Use the DHCP setting when you want the switch module to
	automatically obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.
IP Address	Enter the IP address of the switch module
Subnet Mask	Select a subnet mask from the drop-down
Default Gateway	Enter the IP address for the default gateway (router)

Step 4 Enter the Optional Settings now, or enter them later using the Device Manager interface.

You can enter other administrative settings in the Express Setup window. For example, the optional administrative settings identify and synchronize the switch module for enhanced management. NTP synchronizes the switch module with the network clock. You can also manually set the system clock settings.

Step 5 Click Submit to save your changes.

The switch module is now configured and exits Express Setup. The browser displays a warning message and attempts to connect with the earlier switch module IP address. Typically, connectivity between the computer and the switch module is lost because the configured switch module IP address is in a different subnet for the computer IP address.

Step 6 Disconnect the switch module from the computer, and install the switch module in your network (see Installation, page 2-2).

Step 7 If you have not changed your IP address, skip this step.

If you changed your IP address in the previous set of steps, change it to the previously configured IP address (see Step 3).

Step 8 Display the Device Manager:

a.Open a web browser and enter the switch module IP address.

b.Enter the username and password and then click Enter.

For more information on configuring and managing the switch module, see Accessing the Switch Module, page 4-2.

Note If the Device Manager does not display, check the following:

•Confirm that the LED for the switch module port connected to your network is green
