phones, IP cameras, and wireless access points. The PoE

switches can detect and supply power to pre-standard

legacy PoE Powered Devices. Due to the support of legacy

PoE, it is possible that a PoE switch acting as a PSE may

mistakenly detect and supply power to an attaching PSE,

including other PoE switches, as a legacy PD.

Even though PoE switches are PSE, and as such should be

by another PSE due to false detection. When this happens,

the PoE switch may not operate properly and may not be

able to properly supply power to its attaching PDs.

To prevent false detection, you should disable PoE on the

ports on the PoE switches that are used to connect to PSEs.

You should also first power up a PSE device before

connecting it to a PoE switch. When a device is being falsely

detected as a PD, you should disconnect the device from the

PoE port and power recycle the device with AC power

before reconnecting its PoE ports.

Configuring the 500 Series Stackable

Managed Switch

Before You Begin

Verify the managing computer requirements in the product release notes.

The switch can be accessed and managed by two different methods; over

your IP network using the web-based interface, or by the Command Line

Interface (CLI) through the console port. Using the console port requires

advanced user skills.

Accessing and Managing Your Switch

Use the Web-Based Interface

To access the switch by using the web-based interface, you must know

the IP address the switch is using. The switch uses the factory default IP

address of 192.168.1.254 by default.
