Chapter 5: Using the Web-based Utility for Configuration
Overview
This chapter describes the features included in the Web-based Utility. All of the features shown in this chapter,
unless specifically identified, are included in the all of WebView Switches. The screen images were taken from
the SRW2048 Switch. Additional features for specific Switches are noted. Some functionality on the SRW224G4,
SRW248G4, SRW2016 and SRW2024 Switches may not be fully functional but will be corrected with future
firmware upgrades.
Accessing the Web-based Utility
Open your web browser and enter 192.168.1.254 into the Address field. Press the Enter key and the login
screen will appear.
The first time you open the Web-based Utility, enter admin in the User Name field, and leave the Password field
blank. Click the OK button. For security purposes, it is recommended that later you set a password from the
System Password screen.
The first screen that appears is the Setup Summary screen. Twelve main tabs are accessible from the Web-
based Utility: Setup, Port Management, VLAN Management, Statistics, ACL, Security, QoS (Quality of Service),
Spanning Tree, Multicast, SNMP, Admin, and Logout. Click one of the main tabs to view additional tabs.
The LEDs on the Setup Summary screen display status information about their corresponding ports. A green LED
indicates a connection, while a grey LED indicates no connection. An orange LED indicates the port has been
closed down by the administrator. When you click a port’s LED, the statistics for that port are displayed.
