Chapter 3: Using EdgeOS
EdgeOS is a powerful, sophisticated operating system that
manages your EdgeRouter. It offers both a browser‑based
interface (EdgeOS Configuration Interface) for easy
configuration and a Command Line Interface (CLI) for
advanced configuration.
To access the EdgeOS Configuration Interface:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port
of your computer to the port labeled 0 on the
EdgeRouter.
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer
with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet (e.g.,
192.168.1.100).
Note: As an alternative, you can connect a serial
cable to the Console port of the EdgeRouter. See
“Command Line Interface” on page 38 for
more information.
3. Launch your web browser. Type https://192.168.1.1 in
the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the
Username and Password fields. Read the Ubiquiti
License Agreement, and check the box next to I agree
to the terms of this License Agreement to accept it. Click
Login.
The EdgeOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing
you to customize your settings as needed.
Note: To enhance security, we recommend that you
change the default login using at least one of the
following options:
Set up a new user account on the Users > Local tab
(preferred option). For details, go to Add User”
on page 33.
Change the default password of the ubnt login on
the Users > Local tab. For details, go to “Configure
the User” on page 34.
