4.2 In-band Configuration through Ethernet
In addition to terminal mode configuration, the switch also supports in-band configuration via a
web browser. Web browser configuration is easier than terminal mode configuration because the
user can simply connect the network-ready PC to the switch, open the web browser, go to the
switch’s configuration page (by typing the switch’s IP address), and configure the switch by
clicking on the subject on the menu.
Before you can access the switch via in-band tools, you must make sure the computer that is
connected to the switch has a web browser and the TCP/IP protocol (with valid IP address) is
bound to the network adapter. After that, you can either change your computer’s IP address to the
same class as the switch’s IP address, or you can log into the Switch with the “out-of-band”
method described in the previous section and configure the Switch’s IP address to the same class
as your computer’s IP address.
Below, is the Switch’s default IP information:
IP Address: 192.168.223.100
Subnet Mask: 255.255.248.0
Gateway: 192.168.223.254
