4. Manage the Switch
The switches provide the following methods to configure and monitor the switch as follows:
Making out of band telnet CLI management via the console port
Making in-band management via telnet CLI over TCP/IP network
Making in-band management via web interface over TCP/IP network
Making in-band SNMP management over TCP/IP network
4.1 IP Address & Password
The IP Address is an identification of the switch in a TCP/IP network. Each switch should be designated a new
and unique IP address in the network. The switch is shipped with the following factory default settings for
software management:
Default
IP address of the switch:
192.168.0.2 / 255.255.255.0
The switch uses local authentication instead of RADIUS authentication with factory defaults.
Fixed Username:
admin
Default password:
No password is required with factory default. However, the password is used for local authentication in
accessing to the switch via console, telnet and Http web-based interface. For security reason, it is
recommended to change the default settings for the switch before deploying it to your network.
