Web Quick Start requirements

To use the Web Quick Start, you need the following:
AC power source for the switch
PC with an Ethernet port that you can connect directly to the switch
Category 5 (Cat 5) or higher Ethernet cable
If the PC is connected to the network, power down the PC or disable its network interface card (NIC), then
unplug the PC from the network.
Note. You can use a Layer 2 device between the switch and the PC. However, do not
attach the switch to your network yet. The switch requires the PC you attach to it for
configuration to be in the 192.168.100.x subnet, and uses the WSS Software DHCP server
to assign the PC an address from this subnet. If you attach the unconfigured switch to your
network, the switch disables the WSS Software DHCP server, if the switch detects another
DHCP server on the network. If the network does not have a DCHP server, the switch’s
DHCP server remains enabled and will offer IP addresses in the 192.168.100.x subnet in
response to DHCP Requests.
