• The admin user account is set up as defined.
• A network management system is configured. From this management station, you can access the

management interfaces by choosing the (0.0.0.0) IP address.
• An IP address is configured for the default management VLAN (1).
• A default gateway address is configured.
Note: In the example below, the possible user options are enclosed in [ ]. Also, where possible, the default value is
