2-1-3-1. Management through Ethernet Port

There are two ways to configure and monitor the switch through its Ethernet port – using a web browser and an SNMP manager program. The later one is RubyView dependant which is not covered here. Using a web browser to access the switch’s web-based management UI is highly user friendly so that we will only introduce this method here.

24-PORT GBE WEB SMART SWITCH

Default IP Setting:

IP = 192.168.1.1

Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0

Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254

Assign a reasonable IP address, For example:

IP = 192.168.1.100

Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0 Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254

• Managing 24-Port GbE Web Smart Switch through Ethernet Port

Before you can communicate with the switch, you should have had configured the IP address for the switch and have the IP information ready. Then, follow the procedures listed below.

1.Set up a physical path between the configured switch and a PC with a qualified UTP Cat. 5 cable with RJ-45 connectors.

Note: If the PC directly connects to the switch, you will have to set up same subnet mask for both of them. However, the subnet mask may have to be different for the PC when it is at a remote site. Please refer to Fig. 2-6 about the 24-Port GbE Web Smart Switch default IP address information.

2.Run web browser and follow. However, the subnet mask may have to be different for the PC when it is at a remote site. Please refer to Chapter 4
