Connection

Note:

1. Port 8 is a PD (Powered Device) port that supports being powered by a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) which complies with LPS or PS2 standard and 802.3af/at standard.
2. The DC power input takes precedence over the PD port. If the DC input fails, the PoE input on the PD port will supply power instead.

Configuration

The switch supports two configuration methods:

• Standalone Mode: Configure and manage the switch singly.
• Controller Mode: Configure and manage the network devices centrally. It is recommended in the large-scale network, which consists of mass devices such as access points, switches, and gateways.

Note: When the switch is changed from Standalone Mode to Controller Mode, configurations of the switch will be lost. For details, refer to the related documents on the download center of our official website: https://www.tp- link.com/support/download/.

Method 1: Standalone Mode
In Standalone Mode, use a computer to configure and manage the switch.

1. To access the management page of the switch, open a browser and type the switch’s IP address in the address field, then press the Enter key. If the switch obtains IP address from the DHCP server (typically a router), find the switch’s IP address on the DHCP server. If not, use the default IP address 192.168.0.1 to launch the switch’s management page.
   Note: Make sure the switch and computer are in the same subnet.

2. Enter admin for both the username and password in the lower case letters to log in. The first time you log in, change the password to better protect your network and devices.

3. After a successful login, the main page will appear. You can click the menus on the top side and left side to configure the corresponding functions.
   For the detailed configurations, refer to the User Guide and CLI Guide. The guides can be found on the download center of our official website:
   https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/.

Method 2: Controller Mode
Choose from the following two types of Omada Controller:

• Type 1: Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300)
  Omada Hardware Controller (OC200/OC300) is a good alternative if you have no spare PC to keep running Omada Software Controller in the network. It needs to be purchased additionally. For more details, refer to the Installation Guide of OC200/OC300.

Note:

• Before you start, be sure to power up and connect your devices according to the topology figure.
• A DHCP server (typically a router with DHCP function enabled) is required to assign IP addresses to the EAPs and clients in your local network.
• Omada Controller must have network access to your Omada devices (the router, switch, and EAPs) in order to find, adopt, and manage them.
• Type 2: Omada Software Controller
  On a PC with Windows OS or Linux OS, download the Omada Software Controller from https://www.tp-link.com/support/download/omada-software-controller/.
  Then run the file and follow the wizard to install and launch the Omada Software  Controller. To manage your devices, Omada Software Controller needs to keep running on your computer.

Choose from the following two types of Management Interface:
Type 1: Via Web Browser

1. Open the Omada Controller’s web page.
   *For Omada Software Controller
   Launch the Omada Software Controller on your PC. After the initiation process, the controller automatically opens its web page.
   If not, click Launch a Browser to Manage the Network.
   *For Omada Hardware Controller
   As Omada Hardware Controller gets its IP address from the DHCP server of the router, we don’t know its IP address explicitly.
   However, we can find it on the router’s DHCP client list.
   a. You need first find the IP address of the router. Open the command line on your PC and enter ipconfig. In the result list, find the Default Gateway, which is also the IP address of the router.
   b. Launch a web browser and enter the IP address of the router. Log in to the router’s web page, and both the username and password are an admin by default.
   Then go to Network > LAN > DHCP Client List to find the IP address of your controller according to its MAC address.
   c. Enter the IP address of your controller in the address bar to open its web page.

2. On the Omada Controller’s page, follow the wizard to complete the quick setup.

3. After a quick setup, the login page appears. Enter the username and password you have created and click Log in. Then you can further configure the controller.

4. (For Remote Management) You can remotely access and manage your controller via Omada Cloud Service.
   Note: Before you start, make sure that both your controller and your PC can access the internet.
   For Omada Software Controller, refer to its User Guide
