Configuring the GbE Interconnect Switch Using the Web-Based Management Interface

To log on to the GbE Interconnect Switch for the first time:

1.Click OK at the Enter Network Password dialog box. No initial user name or password is set for the first user. The main page in the Web-based management module is displayed.

The main page displays the main menu, an active graphic of the GbE Interconnect Switch, and the TCP/IP Parameters Setup window.

The active graphic of the GbE Interconnect Switch allows you to monitor the GbE Interconnect Switch status. Graphical LEDs display current link speed and activity. Graphical RJ-45 connectors allow you to display statistics for individual ports. Refer to the section, “Monitoring the GbE Interconnect Switch Using the Active Switch Graphic,” for detailed information.

The TCP/IP Parameters Setup window is used to determine whether the GbE Interconnect Switch should get its IP address settings from the user (Manual), a BOOTP server, or a DHCP server. Refer to the section “Configuring IP Address.”

2.Click the small square hyperlink to the left of the folder icons to display a list of additional menus used to configure, manage, monitor, and maintain the GbE Interconnect Switch.

Setting Up New Users

You can set up a maximum of eight users on a GbE Interconnect Switch.

NOTE: After logging on to the GbE Interconnect Switch for the first time, you must set up at least one user account with Root privileges.
