Chapter 3: Using EdgeOS
EdgeOS is a powerful, sophisticated operating system that
manages your EdgeRouter. It offers both a browser-based
interface (EdgeOS Configuration Interface) for easy
configuration and a Command Line Interface (CLI) for
advanced configuration.
To access the EdgeOS Configuration Interface:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port
of your computer to the port labeled
0
on the
EdgeRouter.
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your computer
with a static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet (e.g.,
192.168.1.100).
Note:
As an alternative, you can connect a serial
cable to the
Console
port of the EdgeRouter. See
“Command Line Interface” on page 38
for
more information.
3. Launch your web browser. Type
https://192.168.1.1
in
the address field. Press
enter
(PC) or
return
(Mac).
4. The login screen will appear. Enter
ubnt
in the
Username
and
Password
fields. Read the Ubiquiti
License Agreement, and check the box next to
I agree
to the terms of this License Agreement
to accept it. Click
Login
.
The EdgeOS Configuration Interface will appear, allowing
you to customize your settings as needed.
