What? Just plug your computer into the switch. You can't do anything else with the switch unless it's a managed switch.

Did you try reading the instructions that came with it? You need to hook the management cable from the management port on the switch to a pc and at the very least assign it an IP address.

If the switch comes with a default IP address or doesn't have a management port, then management will be handled by an internal web management system like most home routers use. Just put the switche's IP address in your browser to get to it.
