Software Administration User's Manual is on the Resource CD.)

Prepare a PC with an Ethernet adapter and a CD ROM drive.

Insert the Resource CD into your CD drive.

Run the Setup program to install the Smart Control Center Utility. The 
Installation Wizard will guide you through the installation.

These instructions assume you are using DHCP in your network. If you are using 
static IP addressing in your network, configure the switch IP address before 
connecting it to your network. In the absence of a DHCP server, the switch will 
default to 192.168.0.239 for its IP address. To configure the switch before 
connecting it to your network:

Set up the PC with a Static IP address in the 192.168.0.x subnet, and connect 

the PC to the switch. Then, use the Smart Control Center Utility to configure 
the switch.

Connect each PC to an RJ-45 network port on the switch front panel.

Use category 5 (Cat5) unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an 
RJ-45 connector to make these connections.

Connect the switch to your network.

Power on the switch. 

Verify that the PC with the Smart Control Center Utility is on the same subnet 
as the switch. 

Double-click the Smart Control Center Utility icon 

on your desktop or in 

Windows Start menu Programs to run the utility and view this screen.

Click Discover to find your switch in the network.
