Chapter 3 Express Setup

Troubleshooting Express Setup

Confirm that the computer that you are using to access the switch module has network connectivity by connecting to a web server in your network. If there is no network connection, troubleshoot the network settings on your computer.

Verify that the switch module IP address in the browser is correct. If it is correct, the port LED is green and the computer has network connectivity. Continue troubleshooting by disconnecting and then reconnecting the switch module to your computer. Configure a static IP address on the computer that is in the same subnet as the switch module IP address.

When the LED on the switch module port that connects to the computer is green, open a web browser and enter the switch module IP address to display the Device Manager. When the Device Manager displays, you can continue with configuration.
