Chapter 1

Starting a Web Browser Management Session

This chapter contains the procedures for starting, using, and quitting a web browser management session on the AT-FS750/24POE and AT-FS750/48 Fast Ethernet Smart Switches. This chapter includes the following sections:
“Establishing a Remote Connection to the Web Browser Interface” on
page 16

Switch’s IP Address

Establishing a Remote Connection to the Web Browser Interface

The AT-FS750/24POE and AT-FS750/48 switches are each shipped with a pre-assigned IP address of 192.168.1.1.
After your initial login, you may want to assign a new IP address to your switch. To manually assign an IP address to the switch, refer to “Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address” on page 24. To configure the switch to obtain its IP configuration from a DHCP server, refer to “Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client” on page 28.
Whether you use the pre-assigned IP address or assign a new one, you must set your local PC to the same subnet as the switch.
To start a web browser management session, do the following procedure:
1. Start your web browser.
2. In the URL field of the browser, enter 192.168.1.1 which is the default IP address of the switch. See Figure 1.

Basic Switch Parameters

This chapter provides procedures to perform basic switch activities such as reassigning the IP address, enabling the DHCP Client, configuring new user names and passwords, and rebooting the system.
This chapter contains the following sections:
“Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address” on
page 24
“Setting Up the IP Access List” on page 26
“Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client” on page 28
“Configuring System Management Information” on page 31

Chapter 2: Basic Switch Parameters

Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address

This procedure explains how to change the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address of the switch. Before performing the procedure, note the following:
A gateway address is only required if you want to remotely manage
the device from a management station that is separated from the switch by a router.
To configure the switch to automatically obtain its IP configuration from
a DHCP server on your network, go to DHCP Client” on page 28.
To change the switch’s IP configuration, do the following procedure:
1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System folder.
The System folder expands.
“Enabling and Disabling the
2. From the System folder, select IP Setup.
The IP Setup Page is displayed. See Figure 6.

3. Change the IP configuration parameters by entering new information in the following fields:
System MAC Address
This parameter displays the MAC address of the switch. You cannot change this parameter.
System IP Address
Displays the current IP address of the switch. To change the IP address, enter a new IP address.
System Subnet Mask
Displays the current subnet mask of the switch. To change the subnet mask, enter a new subnet mask.
System Default Gateway
Displays the default gateway of the switch. To change the default gateway, enter a new gateway.
DHCP Mode
For information about setting this parameter, refer to “Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client” on page 28.
Before enabling DHCP Mode, record the MAC address of your switch. For more information, refer to “Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client” on page 28.
4. Click Apply.
Changing the IP address ends your management session. To resume managing the device, enter the new IP address of the switch in the web browser’s URL field, as shown in Figure 1 on page 16.
5. After you log on to the switch with the new IP address, select Save Configuration to Flash from the main menu on the left side of the page to save the new IP address to memory.
If you do not select Save Configuration to Flash, the IP address will revert to its default or original setting when you power cycle the switch.

Setting Up the IP Access List

When the IP Access List feature is enabled, remote access to the management software is restricted to the IP addresses entered into the IP Access List. It does not restrict the management ping response activity, only web access to the management software.
By default, the IP Access List feature is disabled.
The procedures in this section describe how to enable or disable the IP Access List feature and how to add or remove IP addresses from the list. See the following sections:
“Creating an IP Access List” on page 26
“Deleting an IP Address” on page 27
Creating an IP
Access List
You cannot modify an existing IP address.
To create a list of accessible IP addresses, do the following procedure:
1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System folder.
The System folder expands.
2. From the System folder, select IP Access List. The IP Access List Page is displayed. See Figure 7.

3. Enter an IP address in the IP Address field using a xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx format.
4. Click Add.
The IP address is added to the IP Access List Table.
5. To set the IP restriction status, select Disable or Enable in the pull­down menu next to the IP Restriction Status field.

Enabling and Disabling the DHCP Client

Since the AT-FS750/24POE and AT-FS750/48 switches only have a web management interface and do not have local console connections, you must be careful when you change the IP address of the switch by enabling the DHCP client. With DHCP enabled, the DHCP server automatically assigns the next available IP address to your switch from a range of unassigned IP addresses. This IP address is not advertised over the network and as a consequence, you do not know which IP address has been assigned. Once the switch obtains a new IP address from the DHCP server, the switch becomes inaccessible and the MAC address can no longer be viewed with the AT-S105 Management software using the previous IP address.
To find the new IP address, you must look it up on your DHCP server which requires you to have the MAC address of your switch as a reference.
Before you enable the DHCP client, record the switch’s MAC address. You can view the MAC address on the System Information Page when you first log onto the switch. See page 37. Or, you can find the MAC address on the label affixed to the switch. Provide this information to your system administrator for reference.
“Viewing System Information” on
The MAC address may also be obtained from the agency label that you can find on the bottom of the chassis.
If the switch power cycles or if you press the Reset button before you save the new configuration, the software reverts to the default IP address value. In either case, the IP address value reverts to 192.168.1.1.
This procedure explains how to activate and deactivate the DHCP client on the switch. When the client is activated, the switch obtains its IP configuration, its IP address and subnet mask, from a DHCP server on your network. Before performing the procedure, note the following:
By default, the DHCP client is disabled on the switch.
The DHCP client does not support BOOTP.
After you enable DHCP, you end the current management session.
Log on with the new IP address (provided by your system administrator) using the procedure described in
“Establishing a
Remote Connection to the Web Browser Interface” on page 16.

Record the MAC address of your switch before you begin this procedure.
To activate or deactivate the DHCP client on the switch, do the following procedure:
1. From the main menu on the left side of the page, click the System folder.
The System folder expands.
2. From the System folder, select IP Setup.
The IP Setup Page is shown in Figure 6 on page 24.
3. From the pull-down menu next to the DHCP Mode field, select Enable or Disable.
By default, this field is set to Disable.
4. Click Apply.
If you enable the DHCP client, the web server connection to the switch will be lost.
Before you disable the DHCP client, you need to assign a new System IP Address value in “Configuring an IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address” on page 24. Record this value for future use.
Enabling or disabling DHCP ends your management session.
If you do not select Save Configuration to Flash, the DHCP mode and the IP Address reverts to the previous configuration when you power cycle the switch.
5. Log on to the switch with the new IP address and immediately save your configuration by selecting Save Configuration to Flash from the main menu on the left side of the page.
If you enable DHCP and then save your configuration, you save the IP address obtained from the DHCP server.

Chapter 2: Basic Switch Parameters
If you disable DHCP, enter a new IP address, and then save your configuration, you have saved the DHCP setting and the new IP address on the switch.
