BlueGate 1000’s internal Web pages can be accessed using a static IP address.
When DHCP is enabled (factory default), the DHCP attempt must first timeout before
attempting to access BlueGate 1000’s internal Web pages using the static IP address.
After the DHCP timeout (120 seconds), BlueGate 1000 uses the configured static IP
address.
The factory-default static IP address is: 192.168.0.1.
To access BlueGate 1000’s internal Web server using the static IP address, create a two-
node private network between a single computer and BlueGate 1000:
1.
Connect BlueGate 1000 and the computer (see Figure 5):
§
Solution One:
use standard Ethernet cables to establish a connection through
a switch or hub.
§
Solution Two:
use a crossover cable to create a direct connection. (Figure 6
shows the connections for a crossover cable.)
2.
Configure the computer:
§
Static IP address of 192.168.0.2.
§
Subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
3.
Run Internet Explorer, version 5.0 or higher, and enter
http://192.168.0.1
in the
address field.
4.
Press ENTER or click Go.
NOTE: The default static IP address for BlueGate 1000 can be changed through the
Configuration > Setup option on the internal Web pages. If BlueGate 1000’s static
IP address has been reconfigured, enter the current address.
