About Web-based Management
The
Industrial Managed Switch
offers management features that allow users to manage the
Industrial Managed Switch
from
anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-based Management supports Internet Explorer 7.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim to reducing network
bandwidth consumption, enhancing access speed and presenting an easy viewing screen.
By default, IE7.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. The user has to
explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use network ports.
The
Industrial Managed Switch
can be configured through an Ethernet connection, making sure the manager PC must be set
on same the IP subnet address with the
Industrial Managed Switch
.
For example, the default IP address of the
Industrial Managed Switch
is
192.168.0.100
, then the manager PC should be set
at
192.168.0.x
(where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
If you have changed the default IP address of the
Industrial Managed Switch
to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0
via console, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a number between 2 and 254) to do the relative
configuration on manager PC.
