Configuration

Configure the unit via web browser
The unit can easily be configured via a web browser.
Open the link http://192.168.2.200 in your web browser, and you will be prompted with
a Login screen, where the default settings for Username and Password are:
Username: admin
Password: westermo
Once you have logged in, you can use the extensive integrated help function describing
all configuration options. Two common task when configuring a new switch is to assign
appropriate IP settings, and to change the password of the admin account.
The password can be up to 64 characters long, and should consist of printable ASCII
characters (ASCII 33-126); 'Space' is not a valid password character.
