This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-based management.
About Web-based Management
The PoE Web Smart Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the PoE Web Smart Switch from anywhere
on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-based Management supports Internet Explorer 8.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim to reduce network
bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing screen.
By default, IE8.0 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 PoE Web Smart Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, making sure the manager PC must be set on
the same IP subnet address as the PoE Web Smart Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the PoE Web Smart 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 PoE Web Smart 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.
