Introducing the Web
Configurator
This chapter tells how to access and navigate the web configurator.
4.1 Web Configurator Overview
The web configurator allows you to use a web browser to manage the AAM1212.
4.2 Screen Privilege Levels
There is a high or low privilege level for each screen.
High privilege screens are only available to administrators with high privilege access. High
privilege screens include things like creating administrator accounts, restarting the system,
saving changes to the nonvolatile memory and resetting to factory defaults. Nonvolatile
memory refers to the AAM1212’s storage that remains even if the AAM1212’s power is
turned off. Administrators with high privilege access can use all screens including the lower
privilege screens.
Administrators with the low privilege level are restricted to using only low privilege screens.
Low privilege screens are read only.
4.3 Accessing the Web Configurator
Use Internet Explorer 6 and later versions with JavaScript enabled.
Use the following instructions to log on to the web configurator.
1 Launch your web browser, and enter the IP address of the AAM1212 (default:
192.168.1.1 is the factory default) in the Location or Address field. Press Enter . The
Login screen appears.
