Web-Based Management
Summary
This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based
management.
About Web-based Management
The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage
the Managed Switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser
such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 6.0. It is based on Java
Applets with an aim to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access
speed and present an easy viewing screen.
NOTE: By default, IE6.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open
sockets. The user has to explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java
Applets to use network ports.
The Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, make
sure the manager PC must be set on same the IP subnet address with the
Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the Managed Switch is 192.168.0.100,
then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x is a number
between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
If you have changed the default IP address of the Managed Switch to
192.168.1.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 via console, then the manager PC
should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a number between 2 and 254) to do the
relative configuration on manager PC.
