This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management.
About Web-based Management
The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Managed Switch
from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 7.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim
to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing
screen.
By default, IE7.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets.
The user has to explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to
use network ports.
The Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager PC
must be set on same the IP subnet address with the Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the IFS Managed Switch is
192.168.0.100
, then the manager
PC should be set at
192.168.0.x
(where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the
default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
If you have changed the default IP address of the Managed Switch to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask
255.255.255.0 via console, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a number
between 2 and 254) to do the relative configuration on manager PC.
