2-1-3-1. Configuring Management Agent of 24 Gigabit Web Smart Switch 
through Ethernet Port
  
There are two ways to configure and monitor the switch through the switch’s 
Ethernet port. They are Web browser and SNMP manager. The user interface for 
the last one is NMS dependent and does not cover here. We just introduce the first 
type of management interface. Web-based UI for the switch is an interface in a 
highly friendly way.

Managing 24 Gigabit Web Smart Switch through Ethernet Port 
           
Before you communicate with the switch, you have to finish first  the            
configuration of the IP address or to know the IP address of the switch. Then, 
follow the procedures listed below. 
 
1.  Set up a physical path between the configured the switch and a PC 
by a qualified UTP Cat. 5 cable with RJ-45 connector. 
            Note:  If  PC  directly  connects to the switch, you have to setup the 
same subnet mask between them. But, subnet mask may be 
different for the PC in the remote site. Please refer to Fig. 2-6 about 
the 24 Gigabit Web Smart Switch default IP address information. 
2.  Run web browser and follow the menu. Please refer to Chapter 4. 
24 Gigabit Web Smart Switch  
Default IP Setting: 
IP = 192.168.1.1 
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0 
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254 
 
Assign a reasonable IP address, 
For example: 
IP = 192.168.1.100 
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0 
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.254
