Installing and Managing
Switches
Following installation of
Intel Device View After installing Intel Device View, you can add new switches, estab-
lish or expand stacks of switches, and manage existing switches and
stacks.
Adding new switches To add new switches (that have not been assigned an IP address) to
Intel Device View, select
Device>Install . The Install Wizard
will start and guide you through the installation.
The Install Wizard The Install Wizard requires that you enter a minimum amount of in-
formation to set up the switch for management by Intel Device View.
To select the correct new device, you need to know the device’s MAC
address. You can find this on a label on the rear panel of the device.
You must assign an IP address (and subnet mask) to the switch on
your Local Area Network (LAN).
Intel Device View uses this address for configuration and manage-
ment purposes.
