    INITIAL CONFIGURATIONTo make use of the management features of your Tiger Switch, you must first configure it with an IP address that is compatible with the network it is being installed in. For simplicity, this should be done before you permanently install

    The following proc

    1. Place your Tigit. It will help iworking on you

    2. Connect the Eof your Tiger Shave a link by cDescription on

    address of the switch is 192.168.2.10 and the subnet 5.255.0. If your PC has a different IP address from the n the same subnet (i.e. the PC and switch both have start 192.168.2.x ) you can skip directly to step 4. must set your PCs IP address manually. If you are this process, see Changing a PCs IP Address on
