Configuring the Network Settings on the Administrative System
If you choose not to use the Smart Control Center to configure the network information on the switch, you can connect directly to the switch from an administrative system, such as a PC or laptop computer. The IP address of the administrative system must be in the same subnet as the default IP address on the switch. For most networks, this means you must change the IP address of the administrative system to be on the same subnet as the default IP address of the switch (192.168.0.239).
To change the IP address on an administrative system running a Microsoft® Windows® operating system, open the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) properties screen that you access from the Local Area Connection properties, as shown in the following figure. You need Windows Administrator privileges to change these settings.
WARNING!
When you change the IP address of your administrative system, you will loose your connection to the rest of the network. Be sure to write down your current network address settings before you change them.
