STEP 3 Set up the IP configuration on your computer. a.

If the IP addresses will be assigned by DHCP, make sure your DHCP server is running and can be reached from the switch and the computer. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP server.
