Initial Connectivity
This section describes how to initially access the device's management interface and change its default IP
address to correspond with your networking scheme. Device management can always be done through the
LAN interface, but you can also enable device management through the WAN (as explained in the
).
Accessing Device through Web Interface
You can access the Web-based management interface using the device's default LAN IP address:
▪
IP Address: 192.168.0.1
▪
Prefix Length: 24 (255.255.255.0)
▪
Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0
▪
VLAN ID: 1
By default, the device's embedded DHCP server is enabled for the LAN, and with default IP pool addresses
relating to the default subnet LAN. The DHCP server allocates this pool of IP addresses to computers
connected to its LAN interface. You can disable the DHCP server or modify the IP address pool.
Accessing Device through Default LAN IP Address
1.
Connect the LAN Port (
S1 / GE LAN
) to your computer's network interface, using a straight-through
Ethernet cable:
2.
Make sure that your computer is configured to automatically obtain an IP address. The device has an
embedded DHCP server, which by default, allocates IP addresses to connected computers.
