Web-based Utility

The DGS-1224T Web-Smart Switch has a web browser GUI interface for configuring the Switch through a web browser. To see the list of web browsers the Web-based Utility supports, see Supported web browsers on page 20. A network administrator can manage, control and monitor the Switch from a PC on the local LAN. This section describes how to operate the functions found in the Web-based Utility.

Login

Before beginning to configure the Web-Smart Switch through a web browser over an Ethernet connection, the PC used to manage the Switch must reside on the same the IP network. By default, the Switch automatically obtains an IP address from a DHCP Server. The admin configuring the Switch must check the LAN’s DHCP Server to identify the IP Address assigned to the Switch. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1 if the Switch cannot successfully obtain an IP address from a DHCP Server. If the DHCP assigned IP address of the Web- Smart Switch is 192.168.0.1, then the managing PC should use 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 2 and 254) as its IP address, with a subnet mask also being the same (255.255.255.0 if not assigned by a DHCP Server). To begin, open a supported web browser and enter the IP address of the Switch (ex http://192.168.0.1).

Alternatively, through the SmartConsole Utility, when the Switch is discovered, select the device shown in the Monitor List of the SmartConsole Utility to open the device in a web browser.
