2.1.3.2. Configuring the GSM Series switches through the Ethernet Port
There are three different methods of configuring the GSM Series switches through the Ethernet
Port. They are CLI, Web Browser and via SNMP Management Software. We will not cover SNMP
management in this manual as it will vary depending on the Network Management Software that
is being used.
Note: MIB files can be located for each switch on the CD-ROM, which can then be used with your
Network Management Software.
The default IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway addresses are shown below:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.1.254
To be able to communicate with the switch via the Ethernet port you will need to ensure that your
computer has an IP Address in the same subnet range.
Eg. 192.168.1.5
If using the web management open a web browser and enter the default IP Address of the switch
into the address bar.
You will now be prompted to log into the switch, the default username and password is shown
below:
Username: admin
Password: admin

Note: The web management configuration will be covered in detail in Chapter 3.
