Accessing the Graphical User Interface
Accessing the graphical user interface (GUI) requires that the radio first be connected to power. The Power over
Ethernet (PoE) connection process describes the steps to do this. Note that the GUI will be available approximately
one minute after applying power.
The GUI can be accessed in three ways to facilitate set-up and management.
Locally through the built-in 2.4 GHz wireless management network (B5/B5c and B11 Only)
1.
Through the local Ethernet interface (LAN), or the fiber (SFP) if applicable
2.
Remotely through the Point to Point wireless link
3.
Via 2.4 GHz Management Network
On any device with 2.4 GHz 802.11n capability, go to the wireless network listing and connect to the Local Network
Management wireless network (SSID): "mimosaMXXX". The default passphrase for the 2.4 GHz connection is
"mimosanetworks". Once connected, type 192.168.25.1 into your browser. Please note that both the Local Network
Management SSID and passphrase are configurable by the user, so their values could be different from the default
values.
Via Ethernet interface or in-band over the Point to Point link
By default, the device IP address is 192.168.1.20 and can be accessed via the Ethernet port using this IP address in
any standard Web browser. To access the device via a locally connected computer initially (on the same LAN or
directly to the Ethernet port), the computer’s IP address must be on the same subnet as the above address. Once
you have modified the IP address (static or is DHCP) of the device for remote management purposes (in-band over
wireless or over the Ethernet interface), the new specified IP address must be used to access the device. This is
important to do in order to avoid IP address conflicts with other devices on the network. Current IP addresses of
different Mimosa devices on the network can be identified using terminal-based discovery. It is highly recommended
to change the default password to a unique and secured password.
