The Web Configurator
This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web Configurator.
4.1 Introduction
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy
setup and management of the Switch via an Internet browser. Use Internet
Explorer 6.0 or later to access the web configurator. The recommended screen
resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled
by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScript (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
Note: This User’s Guide shows screens from the GS1510 Series, unless otherwise
specified.
4.2 Device Auto Discovery Utility
To access the web configurator, you will need to know the IP address of the
Switch. If the default IP address (192.168.1.1) has been changed, use the ZyXEL
device discovery utility to easily locate the Switch on your network. The utility can
be found on the CD that came with the Switch, see
Appendix A on page 159 for
installation and usage details.
