3.  When you have the IP address of your Pearl-2, enter the following into the address bar of your web 
browser to launch the Admin panel.

If HTTPS is enabled on Pearl-2,  replace http with https in the URL. 
4.  Enter your user name and password when prompted. The administrative user name is admin. Initially 
no password is set so you can leave that blank and click OK. 
We recommend setting an admin password for higher security, see  User 
administration.

For networks with DHCP, you can:
