Reconnecting to the web-based manager

If you changed the IP address of the management interface while you were using the setup wizard, you must
reconnect to the web-based manager using a new IP address. Browse to https:// followed by the new IP
address of the management interface. Otherwise, you can reconnect to the web-based manager by browsing
to https://10.10.10.1. If you connect to the management interface through a router, make sure that you have
added a default gateway for that router to the management IP default gateway field.
