To use the CLI for initial configuration and assign a static or dynamic IP 
address to the switch, connect a computer or VT100/ANSI terminal to one 
of the console ports on the switch.

¾

1.  Depending on the connector type at your computer or terminal and the 

port that you are using on the switch, use one of the following cables, 

both of which are included in the product package:
•  USB console cable for use with the mini USB console port

Note: 

To use the mini USB port, you must install the USB driver on 

the computer. (The Windows USB driver is on the resource CD.)

•  Console cable for use with the RJ-45 RS232 console port

2.  Connect one end of the cable to the appropriate port on the switch and 

connect the other end to your computer or terminal.

3.  If you connect a computer to a console port on the switch, start a 

terminal emulation program:
•  On a computer with a Windows operating system, you can use 

HyperTerminal or Tera Term. 

•  On a computer with a MAC operating system, you can use ZTerm.
•  On a computer with a Linux operating system, you can use TIP.

4.  If you connect a computer to a console port on the switch, configure 

the terminal emulation program to use the following settings: baud rate, 

115,200 bps; data bits, 8; parity, none; stop bit, 1; flow control, none.

5.  At the user prompt, log in to the switch using the user name 

admin and 

press Enter. At the password prompt, do not type a password but press 

Enter.
You can now use the CLI to manually configure the IP address of the 
switch or continue with the next step and start the ezconfig utility.

Note: 

For information about CLI management, see the CLI reference 

manual and the software administration manual on the resource CD.

6.  At the next command prompt, type 

ezconfig and press Enter.

The ezconfig utility is now running on the switch.

Netgear Switch) #ezconfig
EZ Configuration Utility
--------------------------------
Hello and Welcome!
This utility will walk you thru assigning the IP address 

for the switch management CPU. It will allow you to 

save the changes at the end. After the session, simply 

use the newly assigned IP address to access the Web GUI 

using any public domain Web browser.
Admin password is not defined.
Do you want to assign the admin password (password 

length must be in range of 8 - 64 characters) (Y/N/Q)? y
Enter new password:********
Confirm new password:********

7.  Using ezconfig, set up the basic switch configuration, including a static 

IP address and subnet mask.

8.  Use the switch IP address that is set up by ezconfig to log in to the 

switch’s web management interface.

By default, the switch is configured as a DHCP client to obtain its IP address 
from a DHCP server in the connected network. To find the assigned IP 
address of the switch’s management interface or OOB port, connect a 
computer or VT100/ANSI terminal to one of the console ports on the switch.

¾

1.  Make sure that the switch is connected to a DHCP server.
2.  Set up a console connection with the switch.

For information about setting up a console connection, see Steps 1 
through 5 in 

. After you are logged in 

and at the CLI command prompt, continue with the next step.

3.  At the command prompt, type one of the following commands:

•  To find the IP address of the management interface, enter the 

show ip management command, and press Enter.

•  To find the IP address of the OOB port (which is also referred to as the 

service port), enter the 

show serviceport command, and press Enter.

The active IP address displays.

4.  Use either the management interface IP address or the OOB port IP address 

to log in to the switch’s web management interface.

Manage the features of your switch through the web management interface 
with the appropriate IP address for your configuration.

1.  Enter 

http://<ipaddress> in the web browser address field.

A login window displays.

2.  Enter 

admin for the user name, leave the password field blank, and click the 

LOGIN button.
The System Information page displays. You can now navigate from this page 
to other pages and configure your switch.

For information about using the web management interface, see the software 

administration manual and the user manual on the resource CD.
