Figure 10   Password Page

To set the admin password:

On the menu, click Password. The Change 
Administration Password page appears.

In Old Password, type your current password. 

By default, the Switch does not have any password. If 
this is your first time to access this page or if you have 
not previously set a password, leave this field blank.

In New Password, type the password that you want to 
set.

In Confirm Password, retype the password you typed in 
step 3 to confirm.

Click Apply.

If you want to modify the admin password later on, 
follow the same procedure.

If you forget the administration password after you set 
it, refer to “Forgotten Password” on page 48 for 
information on how to regain access to the Web 
interface.

To enable devices on the network to communicate with 
the Switch, you need to assign an IP address to it — 
either by DHCP or by manually assigning a static IP 
address.

By default, the Switch performs automatic IP 
configuration and assigns an IP address to itself. This is 
necessary for the Discovery application to be able to 
connect to the Web interface.

When you power on the Switch for the first time, it 
automatically uses the default IP address 

169.254.x.y

, 

where 

x

 and

  y

 are the last two bytes of its MAC 

address.
