Unpacking
Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents, the carton
should contain the following items:
zOne 24+2G, 24 port Fast Ethernet Layer 2 Switch.
zMounting Kit: 2 mounting brackets and screws
zFour rubber feet with adhesive backing.
zOne AC power cord.
zOne RS-232 cable
zThis Quick Installation Guide and CD.
Note: for “Stacking” features, please install the optional Gigabit Module (purchased
separately).
Installation
Follow the guidelines below to install the Switch.
zDo not place any object weighted more than 3Kg (6.6 lb) on the Switch.
zConnect the power cord to the Switch and the power outlet.
zLeave at least 10 cm (4 inches) of space around the Switch for heat dissipation.
Desktop or Shelf Installation:
When installing the Switch on the desktop or shelf, please attach the rubber feet to the
Switch. Peel off the protective paper on the pads and attach them on the bottom of the
Switch (one at each corner).
Rack Installation:
The 24+2G Switch is rack-mountable and you can install the Switch on an EIA-19 inch
equipment rack. To do this, first install the mounting brackets on the Switch’s side panels
(one on each side), secure them with the included screws, and then use the screws
provided with the equipment rack to mount the Switch on the rack.

Power On the Switch:
The 24+2G Switch has a universal power supply and you can power up the Switch with 90
~ 260V AC, 50 ~ 60Hz power source. The AC power cord connector is located at the rear
of the unit and the On/Off switch is next to the connector. Connect the power cord from
the power outlet to the Switch and push the On/Off Switch to “ON” position to power on
the Switch. After the Switch is powered on, it will perform “self-diagnostic” (POSD). This
process takes about 100 seconds to complete, during this process, the “DIAG” LED will
blink green and the Switch will not response to any configuration program and all the
connections to the Switch will not be available. When the processed is completed, the
“DIAG” LED will stay solid green.
Below is a table that describes the meaning of each LED indicator.

Initial set up for management
There are two ways to perform the initial setup for the Switch; one is “Out-of-Band

4
Configuration” (connect your PC’s serial port to the Switch’s console port with the
included RS-232 serial cable and run terminal communication program) and the other is
“In-Band Configuration” (network a PC to the Switch and run web browser or telnet). The
sections below show the instructions on how to perform both operations.
Out-of-Band Terminal Mode Configuration
If you are using Microsoft Windows, boot up the computer, go to “Start”, “Programs”,
“Accessories”, “Communications”, and open the “HyperTerminal”. After that follow the
instructions below to setup a new terminal connection for the Switch. If you are using
other communication software, please select correct COM port and setup the connection
properties according to step 3 below.
1. Type in a name for the connection (e.g. SNMP Switch), select an icon for the
connection, and click “OK”.
2. Select the COM port that you are using for this connection and click “OK”.
3. Setup the COM port properties by using the information below and click “OK”.
Bits Rate per Second = 9600
Data Bits = 8
Parity = None
Stop Bit = 1
Flow Control = None
4. Connect the included serial cable from the computer’s COM port to the Switch’s
console port.
5. Power on the Switch and you will see some messages displayed on the
“HypertTerminal”. The Switch’s Power On Self Diagnostic (POSD) takes about 90
seconds. After that, you will see the login screen.
If the Switch is already powered on and finished its self-diagnostic, after running
the terminal communication program, please hit “Enter” once to get the login
screen.
6. At “username” field type in admin and hit “Enter”.
7. At “password” field type in 123 and hit “Enter”. You are now login to the Switch’s
configuration program.
8. On the lower portion of the screen, you will see descriptions of the navigation keys
(e.g. Tab, Space Bar, and Enter). Please use these keys to move around the
configuration program.
For more information about the configuration settings, please refer to the User’s Guide

in the CD-ROM.
Note: If there is no activity for 2 minutes, the console program will automatically
logout. Please reenter the password and username to login.
In-Band Configuration via Ethernet Network
In addition to terminal mode configuration, 24+2G Switch also supports In-Band
Configuration using Web Browser. Compare with terminal mode configuration, web
browser configuration is easier. You can simply connect the network-ready PC to the
Switch, open the web browser, go to the Switch’s configuration page (Switch’s IP address),
and configure the Switch by clicking on the subject on the menu.
Before you can access the switch through in-band, you must make sure the computer
connecting to the Switch has a web browser and the TCP/IP protocol (with valid IP
address) is bound to the network adapter. After that, you can either change your
computer’s IP address to the same class as the Switch’s IP address, or you can login the
Switch with the “out-of-band” method described in the previous section and configure the
Switch’s IP address to the same class as your computer’s IP address.
Below, is the Switch’s default IP information:
IP Address: 192.168.223.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.223.254
Modify Switch’s IP address via Out-of-Band method
1. Login the console (note: default User Name: admin, Password: 123).
2. Use “Tab” key to select (highlight) “Switch Static Configuration” and hit “Enter”.
3. Use “Tab” key to select “Administration Configuration” and hit “Enter”.
4. Use “Tab” key to select “IP Configuration” and hit “Enter”.
5. Use “Tab” key to select “Edit” and hit “Enter”.
6. Use “Tab” key to highlight “IP Address”, enter the desired IP address (e.g.
192.168.1.100), and hit “Enter”.
7. The “Subnet Mask” is now highlighted, enter the correct subnet mask, and hit
“Enter.
8. Input the Gateway address and hit “Enter”.
9. Press and hold “Ctrl” and then hit “A” to go to the “Action Menu”.

10. Use “Tab” key to select “Save” and hit “Enter”.
11. The screen will prompt you to “restart the system…”, turn off the Switch, wait for
10 seconds, and then turn the Switch’s power back on.
After the Switch finishes the self-diagnostic, open your computer’s web browser and at the
“Address:” field, enter the Switch’s IP address (e.g. http://192.168.1.100), hit “Enter” or
click on “Go”, and the Switch’s configuration page will prompt you to enter “User Name”
and Password” to login.
(Note: default User Name: admin, Password: 123).
Modify NetworkAdapter’s IPaddress
You can change the network adapter’s IP address in the Network Adapter’s “Properties”.
We suggest that you change the network adapter’s IP to the following settings:
IPAddress: 192.168.223.101
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
(Note: you don’t need to enter Gateway address at this moment.)
Reboot the computer if necessary. After the computer boots back up, open the web
browser and at the “Address” field, enter http://192.168.223.100 , hit “Enter” or click on
“Go”, and the Switch’s configuration page will prompt you to enter “User Name” and
Password” to login.
(Note: default User Name: admin, Password: 123).
For the complete configuration guide, please refer to the User’s Guide in the CD-ROM.
