Configuring the IP GW

Step one: Log in to the IP GW

All administration of the IP GW is performed through the web interface. To log in to the web interface of the IP GW:

1Use your browser to navigate to the IP address of the IP GW (to discover the IP address, refer to the previous section).

2Click Click here to log in, and then click Change log in and enter the user name admin with no password.

Codian recommends that you change the admin account to use a

ipassword as soon as possible. To do that, go to Users, click the admin link, and provide the required user information.

Step two: Configure Ethernet Port B settings (optional)

Port B is configured through the web interface.

The default setting for the IP GW Ethernet ports is auto-sensing mode. If the switch ports to which you connect the IP GW are not also set to auto-sensing mode, then you need to configure the IP GW Ethernet ports to use the same speed and duplex mode.

Both ends of the Ethernet connection must be configured in the same

iway. For example, either configure both ends of the link to be auto- sensing or configure both ends to operate at the same speed and duplex.

To establish a 1000Mbps connection, both ends of the link must be

iconfigured as auto-sensing.

1To configure Ethernet Port B, go to Network > Port B.

2Enter the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and DNS name server for the port.

3Enter a secondary name server and domain name if required.

4Click Update IP configuration.
