Using the GUI to configure AT-9900 switches

This section describes how to establish a connection to the AT-9900 switches
through the GUI so you can configure it before installing it in your LAN.

1.

Select a PC to use and identify its subnet.

You can browse to the switch from any PC that is running a supported
operating system with a supported browser. JavaScript must be enabled. If
you are using a toolbar or plug-in on your browser to block pop-ups,
disable it while using the GUI. The GUI displays detailed configuration
options and information in pop-up windows.

2.

Connect the PC to the switch

.

Use an Ethernet cable to connect an Ethernet card on the PC to any of the
switch ports.

You can browse to the router through any VLAN as long as you give it an IP
address. These instructions assume you are using vlan1. All switch ports
belong to vlan1 by default.

3.

Access the command line interface.

Access the CLI from the PC as described in the previous section, “Using
the CLI to configure a switch”.

4.

Enable IP.

enable ip

5.

Assign the vlan1 interface an IP address in the same subnet as the PC.

add ip interface=vlan1 ip=ipaddress mask=mask

enable http server

6.

Save the configuration and set the switch to use it on bootup.

create config=your-name.cfg

set config=your-name.cfg

7.

On the PC’s web browser, bypass the HTTP proxy server, if necessary.

8.

Point your web browser at the IP address for vlan1.

9.

At the login prompt, enter the user name and password.

User Name: manager <the default>

Password: friend

The System Status page is displayed. Select options from the sidebar menu
to configure and manage the switch.

For context-sensitive online help, click on the Help button at the top of the
sidebar menu or on any pop-up page.
