Discovery on a Network without a DHCP Server
This section describes how to set up an EnGenius Gigabit
PoE or PoE+ Smart Switch in a network without a DHCP
server. If your network has no DHCP service, you must
assign a static IP address to your Switch in order to log in
to the web-based switch management.
1. Connect the supplied Power Adapter (cord) to the
Switch and plug the other end into an electrical outlet.
Turn the Power Switch on the back of the device to
the ONPosition(forEGS2108PandEGS2110P).Verify
the Power LED indicator is lit on the Switch.
2. Wait for the Switch to complete boot up. It might take
a minute or so for the Switch to complete boot up.
3. ConnectoneendofaCategory5/6Ethernetcableinto
theGigabit(10/100/1000)EthernetportontheSwitch
front panel and the other end to Ethernet port on the
computer. Verify that the LED on Ethernet ports of the
Switch are green.
If your Computer is already on a network, ensure that
you have set it to a Static IP Address on the interface
(Example:192.168.0.10andtheSubnetMaskaddressas
255.255.255.0.).
4. Once your computer is on, ensure that your TCP/IP is set
to On or Enabled. Open Network Connections and then
click Local Area Connecton. Select Internet Protocol
Version4(TCP/IPv4).
5. If your computer is already on a network, ensure that
you have set it to a Static IP Address on the Interface
(Example:192.168.0.10andtheSubnetMaskaddress
as255.255.255.0).
6. Open a web browser on your computer. In the address
barofthewebbrowser,enter192.168.0.239andclick
Enter.
7. A login screen will appear. By default, the password is
password. Enter the current password of the Switch
and then click Login.
8. Once logged in, click IP Setting under the System
Setting and select Static IPtoconguretheIPsettings
of the management interface.
9. Enter the IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway
10. Click Apply to update the system.
