Management Software Guide
Introduction
The OvisLink Windows remote management software allows user to configure the management
function though the LAN port. It uses a specialized RRCP protocol and does not use the IP protocol.
It operates inside the Ethernet network. Comparing to the Ether-FSH2400R, the Ether-FSH2400RS
includes a memory management unit (MPU) to allow switch settings be stored inside the flash
memory and enable the authentication key function.
Important Information
WinPCap application (included in the CD) must be installed before installing the management
software
Please make sure to press the “Update” button after changes
Please make sure to “write to the switch” after change settings
The Ether-FSH2400RS has a factory reset button on the right side of the front panel. This
button will restore switch’s setting to factory’s default values.
If your management program can’t find the switch, please press the reset button.
If the application says authentication failure and the authentication key is correct, please press
“edit Switch Database” and clear all entries.
