CHAPTER 7: WEB MANAGEMENT ACCESS
Your NETGEAR Model GSM712 Managed Gigabit Switch provides a built-in browser interface that lets you configure and monitor it remotely using
a standard Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Through this interface, you can see charts of the traffic
flowing switch, data loads on ports and other information displayed in an intuitive manner. If you have questions, there is always a Help page,
denoted by a question mark, which has more information about the screen that you are viewing.
When you configure the switch for the first time from the console, you can assign an IP address and subnet mask to the switch. Thereafter, you can
access the switch’s Web interface directly using your Web browser by entering the switch’s IP address. In this way, you can use your Web browser
to manage the switch from a central location, just as if you were directly connected to the switch’s console port. Figure 7-1 shows this management
method.
Figure 7-1. Web Management Method
Web Management requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 6.0 or later.
Web Pages
Before displaying the switch home page via a web browser (i.e. Netscape Navigator), a login screen will appear prompting for an administrator
password (if the password protection is enabled). The User Name will always be ‘admin’. Enter the password to access the switch’s management
mode. Once the password is entered correctly, the front page will appear.
Figure 7-2: Password
Note : If password protection is enabled (using the console) without setting your own password, the default password is ‘1234’.
