QS–26 UR SWITCH MODULE – QUICKSTART GUIDE
QUICKSTART GUIDE
NOTE
Note Given that the UR-2S/2T supports Autonegotiation, a straight-through or crossover cable
may be used to directly connect a PC to the Switch.
Z If the computer isn’t connected to the network you will require a
straight-through or a crossover cable and will need to set up a
static IP address to test.
QS.4.7 Assigning a static IP Address to a personnel computer
The Switch can be completely configured using the console port (after configuration of the
IP address and subnet mask, the Switch can be configured using the WEB interface).
In order to configure the Switch using the web-based interface, the computer must be
assigned an IP address and subnet mask. If the computer has already been assigned an IP
address or is connected to a network such that the IP address will be automatically
assigned, you may proceed to configure the Switch through the web Interface.
Z Obtain an IP address, subnet mask, and possibly a gateway
address from your LAN Administrator.
There are rules associated with the assignment of these numbers
which go well beyond this introduction. As mentioned at the
beginning of this guide, for our test network we will be using a
subnet mask of 255.255.252.0 for all computers and relays on the
network.
The IP address of each device on the network must be unique.
Given that the switch was already assigned the IP address
3.94.247.229, we are left with 253 unique addresses.
Z Once the computer has booted up, right click on the icon labeled
“My Network Places”.
Z Select Properties.
