3. Connect the Switch to your Network
Connect any port on the switch to the next-hop ethernet switch or Sophos Firewall. After powering on,
the switch will boot and attempt to get an IP address from a DHCP server (either from the Sophos firewall
or another DHCP server in your network).
If the switch is unable to get an IP address from a DHCP server and is not registered in Sophos Central
within 15 minutes, it will use a default IP address 172.16.16.239. To manually configure your switch,
adjust the network settings of your administration PC (PC/laptop) so that it is on the same network as
the switch. For example:
Ì IP Address: 172.16.16.230
Ì Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Connect your Administration PC/laptop to port 1 of the switch.
Open a browser and enter the IP address of the switch:
and configuration.
If you want to attempt registration with DHCP again, correct the fault that prevented the switch from
getting a DHCP assigned IP address and power cycle the switch either manually or via the switch
management interfaces (CLI or HTTPS web interface).
Please Note: If the switch is still unable to retrieve an IP address from the DHCP server it will use the
default IP address 172.16.16.239.
4. Set Up the Switch
a. Sign in to Sophos Central at
If you don't yet have a Sophos Central Account, please create one.
b. Register the switch in your Sophos Central account by entering the serial number.
Note: After powering on the switch, there is a 15-minute window to register the switch in Sophos
Central. If the network administrator does not register the switch within this time period, the switch will
have to be either hard rebooted or rebooted using the local web interface.
c. After the switch is registered in Sophos Central, it is upgraded to the latest firmware version.
