2.Power on the switch by plugging in the AC-DC power adapter. The default IP is 192.168.0.239.

3.Install the SmartWizard Discovery utility on your computer. The SmartWizard Discovery utility is located on the switch installation CD.

4.Start the SmartWizard Discovery utility.

5.Click Discover for the SmartWizard Discovery utility to find your GS700TS Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch. You should see a screen similar to that shown in Figure 1-1.
