Introducing the Web

Configurator

This chapter describes how to access the ZyXEL Device web configurator and provides an overview of its screens.

2.1 Web Configurator Overview

The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy ZyXEL Device setup and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Netscape Navigator 7.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.

In order to use the web configurator you need to allow:

•Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.

•JavaScripts (enabled by default).

•Java permissions (enabled by default).

See the troubleshooting chapter if you want to make sure these functions are allowed in Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.

2Launch your web browser.

3Type "192.168.1.1" (the ZyXEL Device’s default LAN IP address) as the URL. The Login screen appears.
