Managing Your Network Extender
Use the Network Extender Web Manager to view and monitor the configuration settings and
operational status of your SBX-1000P. You can also configure your network connections and
security settings. See
Protecting and Monitoring Your Network
(page 24) for more
information.
Note: To be sure that you access the Web Manager on the correct device, please unplug all
other Network Extenders on the network. Attach each unit directly and configure each one
individually. See
Setting Up Unique IP Addresses
(page 26) for more information.
Setting Up a Static IP Address
In order to use the Ethernet port on your SBX-1000P to view the Network Extender Web
Manager, you must set up a static IP address on the computer that you will use to access the
Network Extender Web Manager. Use the following procedures to set up a static address of
192.168.100.253 to the computer that you will use to access the configuration screens.
Important: When you have finished configuring your Network Extenders, you must also follow
these procedures to return your computer to its original IP and subnet settings.
