4.1.4 Browser-Based Configuration Utility

The browser-based configuration utility within all local transmitter and remote receiver units requires a network connection 
between a ServSwitch Agility unit and a computer. This configuration utility allows you to perform all of the following functions:

•  View/edit the IP network address and netmask,

•  Configure separate IP network addresses for video, audio and USB,

•  Configure multicast settings (on Remote units),

•  Configure video bandwidth settings (on Local units),

•  View the current video output (on Local units),

•  Perform a firmware upgrade,

•  Perform a factory reset.

4.1.4.1 Connecting a Computer System for Browser-Based Configuration 

1  Connect a suitable network cable to the Ethernet port on the front panel of the ServSwitch Agility unit. See Figure 4-2.

Figure 4-2. Connect the ServSwitch Agility to a suitable network switch.

2  Connect the other end of the link cable to a network switch.

3  Similarly, link your computer to the same, or different, switch located on the same network. Note: A Gigabit connection is not 

essential for configuration purposes.

4  If not already switched on, power up your computer and the ServSwitch Agility unit. You are now ready to use the browser-

based configuration utility. 

4.1.4.2 Accessing the Browser-Based Configuration Utility

1  Temporarily connect the ServSwitch Agility (or Agility Dual) unit and a computer via a network, as discussed above. 

2  Run a web browser on your computer and enter the IP address of the ServSwitch Agility unit, e.g. http://169.254.1.33

  The default settings are as follows: 

•  Local units - IP address: 169.254.1.33 Netmask: 255.255.0.0

•  Remote units - IP address: 169.254.1.32 Netmask: 255.255.0.0

  Where the address of a unit is not known, perform a manual factory reset (see section 4.1.3) to restore the default address.

  The opening page of the ServSwitch Agility configuration utility should be displayed and you can now use on-screen help 

for details of the functions that you wish to perform.
