2 Accessing Web Administration
The administrative interface to the Allworx server is accessed using a web browser via the LAN interface on
TCP port 8080. Assuming the network settings are set to their factory defaults, the steps to connect to this
interface are:
1. Plug your PC into the server’s LAN port.
2. Set up the PC’s network interface to obtain an IP address automatically (using DHCP).
3. Verify that the PC has an IP address on the 192.168.2.x network. You may need to release and renew
the PC’s IP address to get an address from the server.
4. Open your browser and enter the URL of http://192.168.2.254:8080.
5. When the “Welcome to Allworx” page appears, log in using the default password: admin.
When the Allworx server mode is set to NAT/Firewall, NAT/Firewall with DMZ or NAT/Firewall with Stealth
DMZ, the administrative interface to the Allworx server may also be accessed via the WAN interface on TCP
port 8080. This feature is enabled by clicking the checkbox labeled “Allow admin configuration on WAN
interface” on the Network Configuration page. After enabling this feature and rebooting the Allworx server,
open your browser and enter the URL of http://<Server WAN IP Address>:8080.
Note: The WAN administrative option is not available with T1 or PPPoE WAN configurations.
