1. Make sure that at least one switch Ethernet port is available for Express Setup.
Note: No other devices should be plugged into the switch when doing Express Setup for the first time.
2. Make sure your computer network adapter is set to Obtain an IP address automatically.
During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your personal computer has a static IP address,
change your personal computer settings before you begin to temporarily use DHCP.
3. Apply power to the switch.
When the switch powers on, it begins the power-on self-test (POST). During POST, the status indicators
flash while a series of tests verify that the switch functions properly. Wait for the switch to complete POST,
which takes approximately 3 minutes.
4. Make sure that POST has completed by verifying that the EIP Mod and Setup LED indicators are flashing
green. If the switch fails POST, the EIP Mod LED indicator turns red.
5. Press and release the Express Setup button. Wait for a few seconds until the status indicator on one of the
unconnected switch ports flashes green.
Unlike multi-mode Express Setup, there is no time requirement for when you release the Express Setup
button.
6. Connect a Category 5 Ethernet cable from the flashing switch port to the Ethernet port on your personal
computer.
Note: For 1783-BMS4S2SGL or 1783-BMS4S2SGA switches, Port Gi1/1 does not flash during setup,
but must be used to connect 1783-BMS4S2SGL or 1783-BMS4S2SGA switches to a computer. Since
the switches are all fiber ports, insert a copper SFP module into the Gi1/1 port on the switch then
connect a Category 5 Ethernet cable from the SFP module to the Ethernet port on the computer or
connect the Gi1/1 port on the switch to the Ethernet port on the computer by using a fiber-to-Ethernet
media converter.
7. While the Setup LED indicator flashes green, start an Internet browser session on the personal computer.
8. The switch prompts you for the default switch username and password.
9. There is no default username, leave the username field blank then enter the default switch password,
