Web Browser Configuration
The Web Browser Interface allows the user to configure the EtherBridge
with a standard web browser such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft
Internet Explorer. Therefore, any operating system that supports web
browser capabilities can be used to configure the EtherBridge adapter.
In order to use this feature, you must first make sure that you have a web
browser installed on your computer and that you have configured an IP
address in both the computer and the EtherBridge adapter.
NOTE:
The EtherBridge and the computer need to be on the same TCP/IP subnet
(or both configured properly with the correct subnet mask and default
gateway if on a different subnet). For example, because the EtherBridge
default IP Address is 192.168.1.1, you would set your computer to have an
IP Address of 192.168.1.10.
Also, ensure that you have configured your computer’s web browser
properties to communicate over the local area network (rather than via a
PPP dial-up connection).
To use the Web Browser, start your web browser, and enter the default
IP address
http://192.168.1.1
of the EtherBridge Adapter as the
destination web site. Once you are connected, enter the default
password
access
using all lower-case letters, and then select the item
that you wish to configure. You will then be connected to the appropriate
web page for configuration of that item. You may use the normal
browser buttons to move forward and backward through the web pages.
