Introduction

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

(HTML) interface. The Switch can be managed from remote stations anywhere on the network through a standard

browser such as Opera, Netscape Navigator/Communicator, or Microsoft Internet Explorer. The browser acts as a

universal access tool and can communicate directly with the Switch using the HTTP protocol.

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

address you have defined for the device. The URL in the address bar should read something like:

http://123.123.123.123, where the numbers 123 represent the IP address of the Switch.

NOTE: The Factory default IP address for the Switch is 192.168.0.200

This opens the management module's user authentication window, as seen below.

management features available in the web-based manager are explained below.
