Operation Manual

You can copy and paste the IP address into a new shortcut or bookmark it for quick access

on your computer or mobile device. However, if you restart the switch, a dynamic IP

address (assigned by a DHCP server) might change and the bookmark might no longer

link to the login page for the switch. In that situation, you must repeat this procedure so

that you can discover the new IP address of the switch in the network and update your

bookmark accordingly.You can also set up a fixed (static) IP address for the switch (see

Set Up a Fixed IP Address for the Switch on page 16) to make sure that the new bookmark

always links to the login page for the switch, even after you restart the switch.
