TP-LINK OMADA ES210GMP (01) PDF MANUAL

1. Remove the adhesive backing papers from the feet.

2. Attach the feet to the bottom of the switch to prevent it from slipping when placed on a desktop.

Note: This device also supports wall-mounting installation. For detailed information, please refer to the Wall Mounting Guide on the device’s support page.

1. Connect the DC Power Adapter to the switch and the AC Power Cord to the adapter and a power source.

2. Connect the PoE+ Ports (e.g., 1-8 on ES210GMP) to your Powered Devices (PDs) such as IP Cameras, Access Points (APs), or IP Phones. These ports can also connect to non-PoE devices like PCs, but will only transmit data.

3. Connect one of the switch ports (PoE or non-PoE uplink) to a LAN port on your Router/Gateway.

4. Connect the WAN port of your Router/Gateway to your internet source.

Note:

1. The PoE ports can also connect to non-PoE devices, but only transmit data.

2. The PoE ports shall not be used to charge lithium batteries or devices supplied by lithium batteries.

3. Maximum PoE power is 30 W for each PoE port, and total PoE budget is 65 W (for ES205GP) / 123 W (for ES210GMP) respectively.

4. PoE budget calculations are based on laboratory testing. Actual PoE power budget is not guaranteed and will vary as a result of client limitations and environmental factors.

1. Connect the Power Adapter to the switch and a power source.

2. Connect the Ethernet Ports (e.g., 1-5 on ES205G) to your devices, such as a PC.

3. Connect one of the switch ports to a LAN port on your Router/Gateway.

4. Connect the WAN port of your Router/Gateway to your internet source.

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.

In Standalone Mode, use a computer connected to the switch to configure and manage it.

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.

Controller Mode allows central management. Choose one of the Omada Controller types:

• Type 1: Omada Hardware Controller (requires separate purchase).

• Type 2: Omada Software Controller (download and install on a PC with Windows/Linux OS).

Before you start:

• Power up and connect your devices (Controller, Switch, EAPs) according to the topology.

• Ensure a DHCP server (like a router) is available to assign IP addresses.

• The Omada Controller must have network access to manage the Omada devices.

For Omada Software Controller:

• Download from the TP-Link website.

• Run the installer and follow the wizard.

• The Software Controller needs to remain running on the host PC for network management.

Choose a Management Interface:

• Via Web Browser: Access the controller’s web interface.

• Via Omada App: Use the mobile app for configuration.

1. Open the Omada Controller’s web page:

* For Omada Software Controller: Launch the controller application on your PC. It should automatically open the web page. If not, click “Launch a Browser to Manage the Network”.

* For Omada Hardware Controller: Find its IP address from your router’s DHCP client list. (Find router IP via `ipconfig` command, log into router – default user/pass is admin/admin, go to Network > LAN > DHCP Client List). Enter the controller’s IP address in your browser.

2. On the controller’s web page, follow the wizard for initial setup.

3. After setup, the login page appears. Enter the username and password you created and click Log in.

4. You can now configure the controller and managed devices.

Note: Ensure both your controller and your PC can access the internet.

* For Omada Software Controller: Refer to its User Guide for enabling Cloud Access and binding your TP-Link ID.

* For Omada Hardware Controller:

a. Ensure Cloud Access is enabled on your controller (default is enabled). The Cloud LED should be flashing slowly.

b. Launch a web browser and go to https://omada.tplinkcloud.com.

c. Enter your TP-Link ID and password to log in.

d. Click “+ Add Controller” and choose “Hardware Controller” to add your controller.

1. Download the TP-Link Omada App from the App Store or Google Play.

2. Launch the Omada App. You can configure the controller locally or remotely.

• Local Management:

a. Connect your mobile device to the default Wi-Fi SSID of an Omada EAP (format: TP-Link_2.4GHz/5GHz_XXXXXX, found on the EAP label).

b. In the Omada App, go to Local Access.

c. Go to Cloud Access. A list of controllers bound to your ID will appear.

d. Select the controller to configure.

* For Omada Hardware Controller:
