Getting connected to configure EdgeSwitch 5 XP
Simple question, how do you connect the EdgeSwitch 5XP to the laptop to configure 3 ports for POE operations and 2 ports for LAN operations.  The unit looks like the ToughSwitch I'm replacing, but I didn't set that one up.  The tutorials I'm seeing on Youtube already have the Switch linked to the laptop and a nanostation.  I need the instructions to making the connection and setting up in the browser to be able to configure the unit.  I've done that in the past with bullets and nanostations, but not with the EdgeSwitch.  I'm wishing I had the computer expertise to do this without help, but I'm not there.

Thank you!

Default IP address
The default IP address of Edgeswitches (and most Ubiquiti gear) is 192.168.1.20.  You should be able to get to the admin page there and log in with the default username and password of ubnt/ubnt
