connectivity; if unlit, the connection isn’t ready. When lit, the amber LED indicates 100 Mbps connectivity. NOTE: If your LAN is using a network segment other than 192.168.1.xxx, consider configuring one of the computers with an IP address of 192.168.1.xxx. The factory defaults of the switch are as follows: Port base: 5900 IP address: 192.168.1.200 Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.1.254 DNS: 192.168.1.1 2.

Thus, you would enter https://192.168.1.36:6088 in the browser address bar to obtain Web Management access, and within the viewer prompt window you would enter 192.168.1.36:6080. Note: The DNS setting is required only when you want to use the mail alert function to notify users of specific server alert events via e-mail. 4.

The Java viewer itself won’t have an installation process: Just double-click on it to run the program. 3.
