Configuring the Extricom WLAN
System
Accessing the Extricom Switch GUI
After connecting the switch and AP, configure the Extricom WLAN system through Extricom’s
web configuration GUI using a terminal or PC connected to the same LAN as the switch.
To access the Extricom web configuration pages:
1. In your Web browser, enter the following: https://<IP address of the switch>
where <IP address of the switch> is the IP address of the switch provided with your
purchase (for example, the URL should be https://1.2.3.4 if the IP address of the switch is
1.2.3.4). Note that https must be used, not http, in order to initiate a secure browsing session.
https initiates an SSL session with the switch.
