Chapter 1: Operation of Web-Based
Management
Initial
Configuration
This chapter instructs you on how to configure and manage the Vi3026 through the
web user interface. With this facility, you can easily access and monitor through
any one port of the switch and all the status of the switch, including MIBs status,
each port activity, Spanning tree status, port aggregation status, multicast traffic,
VLAN and priority status, even illegal access record and so on.
The default values of the Vi3026 are listed in the table below:
IP Address
192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask
255.255.255.0
Default Gateway
192.168.1.254
Username
admin
Password
After the Vi3026 has been finished configuration, you can browse the interface. For
instance, if you type
in the address row in a browser, it will
show the following screen and will ask you to input in the username and password
in order to login and access authentication.
The default username is
“admin”
and password is
empty
. For first time use, please
enter the default username and password, and then click the
<Login>
button. The
login process now is completed. In this login menu, you have to input the complete
username and password respectively, the Vi3026 will not give you a shortcut to
username automatically. This looks inconvenient, but it’s the safer option.
The Vi3026 supports a simple user management function to allow only one
administrator to configure the system at any one time.
The use of simultaneous
administrators could result in unpredictable operation.
Additional users, even with
administrator’s identity, should only monitor the system. Those who have no
administrator’s identity can only monitor the system. It is suggested, regardless of
security level, that viewing is limited to one client at a time. Also, after accessing the
Vi3026 and viewing is complete, log out.
Connections involving the input of routers and use of clients accessing servers, the
internet, or other networks can result in
a brief disconnection of client's access to
the switch GUI
. It is recommended that after programming or monitoring, clients
log out and that users without administrator access be allowed only a minimal
access period.
NOTE:
When you log into the Switch WEB to manage, you must first
type the username of the admin. Password is blank. So after you type
in the username, please press enter. Management page will enter
WEB. When you log into Vi3026 series switch Web UI management,
you can use both ipv4 ipv6 login to manage. To optimize the display
effect, we recommend you use Microsoft IE 6.0 above, Netscape V7.1
above, or FireFox V1.00 above, and have the resolution 1024x768. The
switch supported neutral web browser interface. If the UI is not
working with FireFox browser, it might result from PC security system
setting.
