WS 2000 Use Cases 9-5
to have an IP address of 192.168.0.2 and a netmask of 255.255.255.0. She also sets the gateway IP address to be
192.168.0.1, the WS 2000’s IP address.
Clarisa starts her web browser and enters “http://192.168.0.1/” as the URL. The WS 2000 sends a login page to her browser.
She logs in using “admin” for the username and “symbol“ as the password. The system immediately asks her to change
the password to something else. Clarisa does so.
Entering the Basic System Settings
Clarisa selects System Settings from the left menu, located under the System Configuration heading.
Upon selecting this screen for the first time, the WS 2000 switch immediately asks her to chose a country. Different countries
have different regulations for the use of these radio frequencies. Setting the location configures the switch to use only the
channels, frequencies, and power levels that are legal for that country. She sets the country to United States - US.
The system name is used to distinguish between WS 2000 switches for remote configuration. She gives the switch a
descriptive name, “SanJose-1”. This name will appear in the footer for subsequent configuration windows for the switch.
She does not need the name now, while she is in San Jose. But later, when she returns to corporate headquarters and wants
to log into several switches remotely, it will help her to know which switch she is working on. She also enters a slightly
longer description on the System Location field.
She enters her email address into the Admin Email Address box. CCC uses an SNMP manager that has the capability of
monitoring network devices and sending email to the manager of a device that is in an unusual state. This is the email
address that will be supplied to that SNMP manager for this switch.
