 7  Interface options
Alternative methods to the ATTO ExpressNAV interface may be used to manage the iPBridge. ATTO 
ExpressNAV is the recommended interface.
Using ExpressNAV 
Each page in the ATTO ExpressNAV interface 
provides information and/or configuration parameters 
based on a specific topic. 
ATTO ExpressNAV is the recommended 
management tool for the iPBridge. It is a web-based 
graphical user interface (GUI) that allows you to 
manage the iPBridge by clicking choices and 
commands in traditional GUI fashion or by entering 
CLI commands directly, as you would in a terminal 
emulation session, on the Advanced CLI page.

Enter the user name and password values. 
Note
The default values are user name: root and 
password: Password. The user name is case 
insensitive and password is case sensitive. It 
is best practice to change user names and 
passwords. Refer to 
The Status page appears.
Each page can be reached through the menu at the 
side of each page. An image on each page’s 
header shows each port in the product faceplate. 
Each port is clickable and takes you to the 
appropriate page. 
If you have completed configuration operations at 
any time and have clicked Submit on the page 
you are viewing, go to the Restart page and
