Connect the provided power cord to the AC power inlet and clip it in place.
Switch the router’s power switch to the ON position. The Power LED lights
continuously and the System LED lights briefly. The Port LEDs also light briefly. If
the LEDs fail to light, check that the router is receiving power.
Configuring the AR750S
You can configure the AR750S routers using the Command Line Interface (CLI)
or Graphical User Interface (GUI). We recommend starting to configure the
router using the GUI. You can then use the CLI if necessary to complete your
configuration (
“Configure the AR750S using the CLI” on page 20 ). The AR750S
router has a default configuration ( “AR750S Default Configuration” on page 22 ).
Configure the AR750S using the GUI
This section describes how to access the GUI via a switch port in VLAN1, when
the PC and the router are in the same subnet, in order to configure the router.
The router’s switch ports all belong to VLAN1 by default.
The GUI requires a PC and web browser. Supported browsers are Internet
Explorer 5.0 or later and Netscape 6.2.2 or later, with JavaScript enabled. If you
are using a toolbar or plug-in on your browser to block pop-ups, disable it while
using the GUI. The GUI displays detailed configuration options and information
in pop-up windows.
Caution If another device on your network already uses the router’s default IP
address, 192.168.1.1, do not connect the router to the network until you have
changed the management port’s address by using the command line.
1. Connect the PC to a router switch port.
The PC can be connected directly, or through your LAN.
To connect the PC directly to the router, use a straight-through Ethernet
cable to connect an Ethernet card on the PC to any one of the router’s
switch ports.
