(TO SETUP A NEW ARUBA S1500-12P, S1500-24P or S1500-48P DATA SWITCH)
1. Power On and boot the Mobility Access Switch.
2. Connect a client device (such as a laptop) to the Mobility Access Switch using any Ethernet port in the front. Ensure that DHCP is enabled on the client device and that it is not connected to any other
network.
3. For the S1500 Mobility Access Switch, press and hold the MODE button for 10 seconds or until the four mode status LEDs turn solid green to activate the GUI Quick Setup mode.
5. Confirm that the client device has the IP address in the following range 172.16.0.[1-253] and the DHCP
server has the IP address 172.16.0.254.
6. Open a web browser and enter 172.16.0.254 into the address bar to launch the WebUI Startup Wizard.
7. Follow the on-screen prompts to fill in the required fields to complete the configuration (see Table 1).

You must complete the WebUI Startup Wizard within 10 minutes of invoking GUI Quick-setup mode, else the Mobility Access Switch no longer functions as a DHCP server; you must begin the process again. The timer in the top right corner of the WebUI displays the time remaining.
