CSG SIP Communications Gateway
Subsequent Logons to the CSG
The method described above will work to log onto the configuration tool of the CSG. In addition, you
can log onto the CSG using the CSG's Network port once it has been enabled. In this case, open a web
browser on a computer which is located on the same network as the CSG. In the address field of the web
browser, enter the IP address of the CSG as defined during the initial installation.
Bonjour (Zero-Configuration) Client
You can also log on to the CSG by using a zero-configuration networking client that allows you to
determine the unit’s IP address, such as Bonjour or a similar zero-configuration client.
Zero-configuration (or Zeroconf, also known as "Bonjour") technology provides a general method to
discover services on a local area network. In essence, it allows you to set up a network without any
configuration, as described below.
You may need a zero-configuration client to determine the IP address of the CSG. There are many
zero-configuration clients available. However, for the purposes of this document, we will refer to
Bonjour for Windows. It is free, and widely available for download. If you don’t already have it installed
on your PC, download and install Bonjour for Windows before you begin.
Perform these steps to log on to the CSG through Bonjour for Windows:
1. With Bonjour for Windows running on a PC that has access to the LAN on which the CSG resides,
connect the CSG to the network (see Installing the Hardware section on page 7).
2. In Bonjour, you will see the unit join the network at power up (FIG. 2). Double-click the CSG link
to access the CSG Login page (FIG. 1).
3. To log on to the system, enter the following user name and password:
Username: admin
Password: 1988
FIG. 2 Bonjour for Windows - example screen
As shown in FIG. 2, Bonjour for Windows operates as a plug-in to Internet Explorer (version 7
shown), and is displayed in the IE Explorer Bar. If you have installed Bonjour for Windows, but
don’t see the Bonjour toolbar icon, you may need to "unlock" and expand the toolbars to see it.
