Methods for Enabling Web Manager Access
An administrator who knows the admin user’s password (“cyclades” is the default) and who has network
access to the OnSite needs to enter the OnSite’s DNS name or IP address in a browser to bring up the Web
Manager and to finish the configuration of users and connected devices. Before the administrator can
access the Web Manager to finish configuration, one of the tasks in the following table must be done to
either set a static IP address, set up a DHCP server, or use the default IP address.
If using a static IP address, before you start, collect the following network information from the
administrator of the network.
•
Hostname: _________________________________________________
•
OnSite’s public IP address: _________________________________
•
Domain name: ______________________________________________
•
DNS server’s IP address: _____________________________________
•
Gateway IP address: _________________________________________
•
Network Mask: _____________________________________________
If you are using a network time server, also obtain the following information:
•
NTP server IP address: _______________________________________

Methods for Enabling Web Manager Access
Method
Considerations
Where Described
Make a local connection
to configure a static IP
address:
• Connect a terminal to
the console port and use
the
wiz
command to
configure a static IP
address.
OR
• Connect a monitor,
keyboard, and mouse to
the Local User ports
and use the OSD to
configure a static IP
address.
You must be at the same location as the OnSite to
make the local connection.
• “Making a Local Connection for
Network Configuration” on page 4
Use a DHCP-assigned
address.
DHCP is enabled by default. It relies on a DHCP
server that must be available to the OnSite.
“To Use a Dynamic IP Address to
Access the Web Manager” on page 7
Use the default OnSite IP
address 192.168.160.10
to bring up a Web
Manager to set a static IP
address.
You must temporarily change the network
portion of the IP address of a computer with
network access to the OnSite to be able to use the
default IP address in launching the Web
Manager.

Access the Web Manager” on page 7
