To connect to the switch via the web browser, first configure the computer’s IP address to be on the same IP
address subnet as the switch (the switch’s default IP is 192.168.0.1). Make sure that the HTTP server is
enabled on the switch (see Chapter 3.12 User Interface Configuration). For more information on how to
configure the TCP/IP settings, please refer to the computer manufacturer’s user’s manual.
Now launch the web browser and enter the switch’s default IP address into the address field. You will need
to enter the user name (root) and password (Asante). The Introduction page will appear. Proceed through
the pages to configure each variable. See Chapter 5 Web-Based Management for more information on
configuring the switch via the web browser.

address subnet as the switch (192.168.0.X). Make sure that Telnet is enabled on the switch (see Chapter
3.12 User Interface Configuration). For more information on how to configure the TCP/IP settings, please
refer to the computer manufacturer’s user’s manual.
Now run a telnet session to configure and manage the switch. The Login screen will appear. For the initial
SSH login, the username and password are fixed as root and Asante, respectively. Enter the username and
password to access the Main Menu, and proceed to select the variables to configure. See Chapter 3
