Accessing the Switch

CHAPTERS

1. Overview

2. Web Interface Access

3. Command Line Interface Access

Accessing the Switch Overview

1

Overview

You can access and manage the switch using the GUI (Graphical User Interface, also called
web interface in this text) or using the CLI (Command Line Interface). There are equivalent
functions in the web interface and the command line interface, while web configuration is
easier and more visual than the CLI configuration. You can choose the method according
to their available applications and preference.

Configuration Guide 4

Accessing the Switch Web Interface Access

2

Web Interface Access

You can access the switch’s web interface through the web-based authentication.
The switch uses two built-in web servers, HTTP server and HTTPS server, for user
authentication.

The following example shows how to login via the HTTP server.

2.1 Login

To manage your switch through a web browser in the host PC:

1) Make sure that the route between the host PC and the switch is available.

2) Launch a web browser. The supported web browsers include, but are not limited to, the
following types:



IE 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0



Firefox 26.0, 27.0



Chrome 32.0, 33.0

3) Enter the switch’s IP address in the web browser’s address bar. The switch’s default IP
address is 192.168.0.1.

Figure 2-1 Enter the switch's IP addresss in the browser

4) Enter the username and password in the pop-up login window. Use admin for both
username and password in lower case letters.

Figure 2-2 Login authentication

5) The typical web interface displays below. You can view the switch’s running status and
configure the switch on this interface.

2.2 Save Config Function

The switch’s configuration files fall into two types: the running configuration file and the
start-up configuration file.

After you perform configurations on the sub-interfaces and click Apply, the modifications
will be saved in the running configuration file. The configurations will be lost when the
switch reboots.

If you need to keep the configurations after the switch reboots, please use the Save
function on the main interface to save the configurations in the start-up configuration file.

Accessing the Switch Web Interface Access

2.3 Disable the Web Server

You can shut down the HTTP server or HTTPS server to block any access to the web
interface.

SECURITY > Access Security > HTTP Config, disable the HTTP server and click Apply.

Go to

Figure 2-5 Shut down HTTP server

Go to

SECURITY

> Access Security > HTTPS Config

, disable the HTTPS server and click

Apply.

Figure 2-6 Disbale the HTTPS Server

2.4 Change the Switch's IP Address and Default Gateway

If you want to access the switch, you can configure the system IP address of the switch.
If you want the switch to accss a network, you can configure the default gateway of the
switch. Only the computers in the management VLAN can access the management
interface of the switch. By default, VLAN 1 owning all the ports is the management
VLAN and you can access the switch via any port. By default, the system IP address is

192.168.0.1, and the switch has no default gateway. The following example shows how to

change the system IP address and default gateway of the switch,

1) Go to

SYSTEM > System Info > System IP

. Specify the management VLAN ID. Specify

Command Line Interface Access

Users can access the switch's command line interface through the console (only for switch
with console port), Telnet or SSH connection, and manage the switch with the command

lines.

Console connection requires the host PC connecting to the switch’s console port directly,
while Telnet and SSH connection support both local and remote access.

The following table shows the typical applications used in the CLI access.

System

1.1 Overview

In System module, you can view the system information and configure the system
parameters and features of the switch.

1.2 Supported Features

System Info

You can view the switch’s port status and system information, and configure the device
description, system time, daylight saving time, and system IP/IPv6 (Only for T1500/T1500G
Series Switches).

User Management

You can manage the user accounts for login to the switch. There are multiple user types
which have different access levels, and you can create different user accounts according
to your need.

System Tools

You can configure the boot file of the switch, backup and restore the configurations,
update the firmware, reset the switch, and reboot the switch.

EEE

EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is used to save power consumption of the switch during
periods of low data activity. You can simply enable this feature on ports to allow power
reduction.

PoE

Note

：

Only T1500-28PCT, T1500G-10MPS and T1500G-10PS support the PoE feature.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a remote power supply function. With this function, the switch
can supply power to the connected devices over twisted-pair cable.

Some devices such as IP phones, access points (APs) and cameras may be located far
away from the AC power source in actual use. PoE can provide power for these devices
without requiring to deploy power cables. This allows a single cable to provide both data
connection and electric power to devices.

Configuration Guide 20

Managing System System

IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at are both PoE standards. The standard process of PoE power
supply contains powered-device discovery, power administration, disconnect detection
and optional power-device power classification.



PSE

Power sourcing equipment (PSE) is a device that provides power for PDs on the Ethernet,
for example, the PoE switch. PSE can detect the PDs and determine the device power
requirements.



PD

Powered device (PD) is a device receiving power from the PSE, for example, IP phones and
access points. According to whether PDs comply with IEEE standard, they can be classified
into standard PDs and non-standard PDs. Only standard PDs can be powered via TP-Link
PoE switches.

SDM Template

SDM (Switch Database Management) Template is used to prioritize hardware resources for
certain features. The switch provides three templates which allocate different hardware
resources for different usage, and you can choose one according to your need.

Time Range

With this feature, you can configure a time range and bind it to a PoE port or an ACL rule.
