Concurrent login users
The Web interface allows a maximum of 32 concurrent accesses. If this limit is reached, login
attempts will fail.
Logging in to the Web interface for the first time
IMPORTANT:
As a best practice, change the login information and assign access permissions immediately after
the first successful login for security purposes.
By default, HTTP and HTTPS are enabled.
To log in to the Web interface:
1.
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the configuration terminal to an Ethernet port on the device.
2.
Identify the IP address and mask of the device.
{
If the device is not connected to the network, or no DHCP server exists on the network, the
device uses the default IP address and mask. The default mask is 255.255.0.0. The default
IP address is 169.254.

depends on the last two bytes of the MAC
address. Find the MAC address label on the device and use the following rules to determine
the last two bytes for the IP address:
Last two bytes of the MAC
address
Last two bytes for the IP address
All 0s
0.1
All Fs
255.1
Not all 0s or all Fs
Decimal values of the last two bytes of the MAC address
For example:
MAC address
IP address
08004E080000 169.254.0.1
08004E08FFFF 169.254.255.1
08004E082A3F
169.254.42.63 (The decimal value of 2A is 42. The
value of 3F is 63.)
{
If a DHCP server is available, the device obtains an IP address from the server. To identify
the address, log in to the device through the console port, and then execute the
summary
command. The following is the sample output:
<Sysname> summary
Select menu option: Summary
IP Method: DHCP
IP address: 10.153.96.86
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default gateway: 0.0.0.0
For more information about console login, see the getting started guide for the device.

Assign the login host an IP address in the same subnet as the device.
