First, you need to temporarily change the network configuration
of a workstation on the same network as the VGA Bridge devices.
Since all Epiphan devices have the same default IP address, you
should only have one Epiphan device connected to the network
or powered on at a time. Turn off or disconnect all other Epiphan
devices including all but one of the VGA Bridge devices. Log into
the remaining device’s Web admin interface using the default IP
address.
You must also establish an Ethernet connection between the VGA
Bridge device and the workstation. You can do this using one of
the following methods:
• Connect the VGA Bridge Eth 1 port to the same Ethernet
network as the workstation.
• Connect the VGA Bridge Eth 1 port to an Ethernet network
switch and connect the workstation’s Ethernet port to the
same switch.
• Connect the VGA Bridge Eth 1 port directly to the
workstation’s Ethernet port. (You can use a regular or cross-
over Ethernet cable for this connection.)
To connect to the VGA Bridge Web admin interface using
the default IP address and to configure the device with a
static IP address
1
Change the IP address of the workstation to:
IP Address:
192.168.255.249
Subnet Mask:
255.255.255.252
Follow the instructions for the workstation’s operating
system. If the operating system supports adding more than
one IP address, then you can add this IP address as a second IP
address instead of changing the current address.
2
Power on a VGA Bridge device and connect it to the network.

Start a web browser on the workstation and browse to:
http://192.168.255.250/admin/
