Refreshing the PC IP Address
After you complete Express Setup, you should refresh the PC IP address.
For a dynamically assigned IP address, disconnect the PC from the switch, and reconnect it to the
network. The network DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the PC.
For a statically assigned IP address, change it to the previously configured IP address.
