Rapier Switch User Guide

Passwords must be ordered from your local distributor or reseller. You must specify the special features to be licenced and the serial number(s) of the switch(s) on which the special feature licences are to be enabled.

Graphical User Interface

The switch includes a built-in web browser based GUI for configuring and monitoring the switch. Before you can access the GUI, it must be enabled using the CLI (“Command Line Interface” on page 11). You need a web browser to access the GUI. If you do not have one installed on your PC, install Netscape Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer from the Rapier Switch Documentation & Tools CD-ROM. Some features may still need to be configured using the CLI. GUI pages may differ slightly from those shown below, depending on the web browser and software version you are using.

Starting the GUI

Point your web browser at the IP address you have assigned to the switch, for example, http://192.168.1.1. The authentication window appears (Figure 1). The “Enter Network Password dialog” allows only authorised users with the correct password to access the switch. (The appearance of this dialog may differ depending on the browser you use.)

Figure 1: Enter Network Password dialog

Enter the username manager and the password friend. The GUI Main Screen opens (Figure 2).
