+## Setup
+
+1. Wait for it to boot (a few minutes).
+1. (Optional) Reset the configuration:
+    1. Hold the reset button for 15 seconds (minimum 10 seconds) to clear its configuration. When released, the port LEDs should start go dark or start blinking or something.
+    1. Wait for it to reboot.
+1. Connect the switch to the upstream network or to your PC. It will use the default IP address `192.168.1.251` or use a DHCP address. If using the default address, the system LED will be blinking. If it gets assigned a DHCP address, it will stop blinking.
+1. Access the HTTP portal and login using username "admin" and password "admin".
+1. (Optional) Update the firmware:
+    1. Check the firmware version in the banner and check if it is the latest version (1.1.1.9 for LGS326 last time I checked).
+    1. Go to "maintenance", "file management", "firmware & boot code".
+    1. Upload and apply the new version.
+    1. Reboot the device for it to take effect.
+1. (Optional) Upload a config:
+    1. Go to "maintenance", "file management", "configuration & log".
+    1. "Download" the new config to the switch, either to running config or startup config.
+        - Uploading to running config: The config will take effect immediately, which may include changing the IP address. Remember to copy it to startup config afterwards. Do this when testing new config changes.
+        - Uploading to startup config: Wait for the upload to finish, then reboot the device for it to take effect. Only do this for functioning configs.
+    1. Wait for it to come back up to whatever IP address it's configured to use (should take under a minute). If it doesn't come back up within a few minutes, fix the config and restart/reset the switch.
