Step 5. Verify Workstation Requirements
❑ Verify that your workstation can support the QuickTools™ application with the following minimum requirements:
❑ Windows
®
2003 and XP SP1/SP2
❑ 512 MB memory minimum; 1 GB recommended
❑ 1 GHz processor

❑ Internet Browser: Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer
®
6.0 and later, Netscape Navigator
®
6.0 and later, Firefox
®
1.5 and later, or Mozilla™ 1.5
❑ The default IP address of a new switch is 10.0.0.1. Ensure that your workstation is configured to communicate
with the 10.0.0 subnet.
Step 6. Connect the Workstation to the Switch
❑ Connect the workstation to the switch using an Ethernet crossover cable, switch, or hub. If you are using a Windows
workstation, you must have a live Ethernet connection when the workstation powers up.
Step 7. Log In to the Switch
You can log in to and manage the switch using the command line interface or the QuickTools web applet. This guide will
describe the use of QuickTools.
❑ Open an Internet browser and enter the default IP address 10.0.0.1 to start the QuickTools web applet.
❑ Log in to the switch using the default user name (admin) and password (password).
Step 8. Run the Configuration Wizard
❑ Obtain the IP address and subnet mask from your network administrator.
❑ Open the QuickTools Wizards menu and select Configuration Wizard. Follow the instructions to set network
parameters and the password. The default user name is admin; the default password is password. Changing the
IP address will terminate the QuickTools session.
❑ Open an Internet browser and start a new QuickTools session. Enter the new IP address to log in to switch.
Step 9. Connect Devices
❑ Connect fiber optic cables between the installed transceivers and their corresponding devices. Each port
auto-negotiates the proper port type with the connected device.
