Sorry but the question doesn't make much sense. I am going to assume that you are asking how to setup the two machine with IP Addresses so that they can both communicate on the switch ?
I would just use a network range of something like 192.168.0.0/24.
If you are doing this then all you would need to do is add an ip address and subnet mask to both the machines.
i.e.
Machine A - IP Address 192.168.0.1
Machine B - IP Address 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask for both - 255.255.255.0
Now plug both network cards into the switch and away you go (providing there are no firewalls installed on the machines blocking access).
Hope thats what you was after
