To configure the switch before connecting it to your network:
1. 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.
2. 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.

Turn on the computer and switch in the correct sequence.
Follow this sequence. Turn off the switch and computer. First, turn on the
switch and wait two minutes. Next, turn on the computer.
Make sure the Ethernet cables are securely plugged in.
For each powered on computer connected to the switch with a securely
plugged in Ethernet cable, the corresponding Smart Switch port status light
will be lit.
Make sure the network settings of the computer are correct.
In most cases, computers should be configured to obtain an IP address
automatically via DHCP. For help with this, refer to the GS110TP Software
Administration Manual; a link to the online Reference Manual is on the
Resource CD.
If your network uses static IP addresses, be sure the switch and computer are
