It is easy to set up and configure Cisco SG200 series switches.

• Unpack the SG200 series switch and connect the power as well as Ethernet cable to the computer. The SG200 can be connected to the same IP subnet or to the same LAN Network or through another IP subnet through IP router.

• The SG200 uses the default IP address of 192.168.1.254 and users would need to choose an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.2 to 192.1681.253, taking care to select one that is not in use by another unit. If a DHCP service assigns IP address automatically then the service must be up and running when connected to the switch and computer. The unit may get the IP address at the first attempt but if not users may need to switch of, disconnect, reconnect and switch on again for the DHCP IP address to be assigned.

• Open a browser, enter the switch IP address and press enter. The usual address is http://192.168.1.254 following which the SG200 page shows up in the browser.

• Enter user name which is Cisco and password which is also Cisco in lower case. These done users can change password and apply changes.

• Users then set connection type on the SG200 to static and change static IP address and subnet mask according to the network settings and save the settings.

• If the SG is part of DHCP network then that network automatically assigns IP address.
