Introduction

Web-based User Interface

Introduction

Most software functions of the Switch can be managed, configured, and monitored via the embedded Web-based

(HTML) interface. Manage the Switch from remote stations anywhere on the network through a standard browser,

such as Internet Explorer (version 5.5 and later), Netscape (version 8.0 and later), Mozilla Firefox (version 2.0 and

later), or Safari (version 4.0 and later). The browser acts as a universal access tool and can communicate directly with

the Switch using the HTTP protocol.

Logging onto the Web Manager

To begin managing the Switch, simply run the browser installed on your computer and point it to the IP address you

have defined for the device. The URL in the address bar should be in the format of http://123.123.123.123, where the

numbers 123 represent the IP address of the Switch.

NOTE: The factory default IP address is 10.90.90.90 for normal ports. The factory default IP address is

192.168.0.1 is for the management port.

This opens the management module's user authentication window, as seen below. The following example is from

10.90.90.90.
