3. When the search is complete, every EDS switch and VPort found on the
network will be listed onscreen.
NOTE
Broadcast Search can only search for devices connected to the
same LAN domain as the PC running the utility. If your devices are
located on different LAN domain, use the Specify IP Address
function to search for a specific IP address.
4. Double-click the selected VPort, or use a web browser to access the
VPort’s web-based manager (web console).
Network Environment without DHCP Server
If your VPort is connected to a network that does not have a DHCP server, then
you will need to configure the VPort's IP address manually. The default IP
address of the VPort 251 is 192.168.127.100 and the default subnet mask is
255.255.255.0. Make sure that you change your computer’s IP address and
subnet mask so that the computer is on the same subnet as the VPort.
Open the VPort’s web-based manager (see Step 6) and navigate to the System
Configuration Æ Network Æ General page. Select Use fixed IP address to
ensure that the IP address you assign is not deleted each time the VPort is
restarted.
Step 6: Open the VPort's web-based manager
In a web browser, enter the VPort's IP address as the URL to open the VPort's
web-based manager.
Step 7: Install the ActiveX Control plug-in
When you first access the VPort’s web-based manager, a message will appear
regarding the installation of the VPort ActiveX Control component. Click
"Yes" to allow the display of video images in the web browser.
