Connecting and Configuring an EX Series Switch (J-Web Procedure)

There are two ways to connect and configure an EX Series switch: one method is through the console using the CLI and the other is using the J-Web interface. This topic describes the J-Web procedure.

To run the ezsetup script, the switch must have the factory default configuration. If you have configured anything on the switch and want to run ezsetup, revert to the factory default configuration. See Reverting to the Default Factory Configuration for the EX Series Switch.

To connect and configure an EX Series switch using the J-Web interface:

1.Connect the Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on the PC to the switch.

■EX2200, EX3200, or EX4200 switch—Connect the cable to port 0 (ge-0/0/0) on the front panel of the switch.

■EX8200 switch—Connect the cable to the port labeled MGMT on the Switch Fabric and Routing Engine (SRE) module in slot SRE0 in an EX8208 switch or on the Routing Engine (RE) module in slot RE0 in an EX8216 switch.

These ports are configured as the DHCP server with the default IP address, 192.168.1.1. The switch can assign an IP address to the management PC in the IP address range 192.168.1.2 through 192.168.1.253.

NOTE: The switch will transition into initial setup mode only when the switch is in the factory default configuration.

2.Transition the switch into initial setup mode:

■EX2200 switch—Press the mode button located on the lower right corner of the front panel for 10 seconds.

■EX3200, EX4200, or EX8200 switch—Use the Menu and Enter buttons located to the right of the LCD panel (see Figure 66 on page 164):
