Fast Setup
Fast setup mode allow the user to configure basic operating parameters on the router.
Your Perle router has been shipped to you in Factory Default mode. When the router is in “Factory
Default” mode, it will automatically power up in “Fast setup” mode. When the router is in “Fast
Setup” mode, the Power LED will be flashing green. In this mode, when you connect to the router
either via the console port or via a Web browser, you will be asked to enter some basic operating
parameters including setting up the initial user ID and password for the router.
To connect via the console port, follow the instructions provided in - Connecting to the Serial Port .
If you wish to connect using a Web browser, connect your PC Ethernet cable to an Ethernet port on
the router. Ensure that the PC is set up to use DHCP as the method for obtaining its IP address. The
router will act as a DHCP server and assign an IP address to the PC. Next, launch the Web browser
and browse to “http://192.168.0.1”. You should see the fast setup screen appear.
Refer to the Quick Start Guide or the Perle IRG5000 Series Router User’s Guide for more informa -
tion on setup instructions.
