3.2  Accessing the Web Configurator 
All web configurator screens are shown in Internet Explorer. Follow the steps below to access the web configurator.  
You must access the web configurator through the WAN.  
The VSG allows only one login session at any one time using the web configurator.  
Step 1. 
Make sure your VSG is properly connected (refer to instructions in the chapter on hardware installtion).  
Step 2. 
Launch your web browser and type the WAN IP address (192.168.1.1 is the default) of the VSG as the

If you are using a different port number (between 8000 and 8099) for the web server, you must also 
append the port number to the WAN IP address seperated with a colon “:”,for example, 
http://192.168.1.1:8080.
