MCM-204
3 Web Console
This chapter describes how to use the built-in web console to
configure the MCM-204 and view captured data.
3.1 Web Console Login
After the MCM-204 has been successfully powered on and a host
PC has been connected to it, do one of the following: (1) set the
PC’s network setting to either DHCP mode or link local mode; or
(2) modify the PC’s IP address to be on the same network
segment as the device (169.254.x.x). Next, open a web browser
on the PC (Google Chrome is recommended) to access the web
console via one of the following options.
Option 1: IP Address
In the web browser’s address bar, enter the MCM-204’s IP
address (e.g., http://169.254.1.1). The default network setting
of the MCM-204 is Static IP mode with an IP address of
169.254.1.1.
Option 2: Hostname
Connect the MCM-204 to a network component (switch/router)
with DNS functionality, then enter the MCM-204’s hostname in
the address bar of the host PC’s web browser, prefaced by
http:// (e.g., http://mcm204-j801ns1001). A unique default host-
name is generated for each MCM-204 device and can be found
on the label of the box it was shipped in. The hostname can be
changed within the web console.
After using either method, the web console will display within
roughly 30 seconds, presenting the user with a login screen (see
Figure 3-1 on the next page).
The default username is administrator and the default password
is Adlink6166 .
