3 Enter your Username and Password and click the Login button.
The default username is admin and the default password is password.
We strongly recommend that you change the default admin password as one of your first actions: Go to Dashboard>Users.
Click on the furthest right icon in the admin row (configure users) and change the password for the admin user.
If you check the Remember Me box, a cookie will be stored on the computer, allowing you to access the admin section
without having to log in each time. The cookie expires 2 days after your last use of the system. If you do not check the
Remember Me box, you will remain logged in only for the duration of your browser session.
IMPORTANT
The first time you log in as an admin user to a new ServSwitch iPATH unit, you will be presented with the Settings
page where you will need to change ServSwitch iPATH’s default IP address to one that suits your existing network
configuration.
You will NOT be able to perform any other actions or navigate to any other pages within the ServSwitch iPATH
admin interface until you have changed ServSwitch iPATH’s IP address.
To change the IP address, type in a new IP address in the relevant field (you should also change the gateway/
netmask details for your network).
When you click Save, the unit will reboot itself. This may take 2-3 minutes, after which the web browser will
automatically redirect itself to the new IP address so that you can continue administering ServSwitch iPATH.
Note: Ensure that your access computer can view the new IP address, otherwise ServSwitch iPATH will appear to be
offline. Depending on your network configuration and that of the access computer, you may need to change the
access computer’s configuration to be able to see ServSwitch iPATH’s new network address.
You will then be asked to login again and will have full access to all of ServSwitch iPATH’s pages.
4.3 Adding ServSwitch Agility units
When new transmitters and receivers are added to a ServSwitch iPATH network, they will automatically announce themselves and
their details will be displayed within the administrator’s view of the Dashboard.
