Web Interface - Luminex GigaCore 12 Operating Manual

Web interface

Every GigaCore switch embeds a built-in web server, which exclude the need of a dedicated application to configure the
unit. Browsers such as Chrome, Internet Explorer (IE 9 minimum), Firefox or Safari can be used to reach the web server.
Luminex recommends to always use the latest version of your favorite web browser for the best user experience.
Every unit comes with a default IP address, visible at the rear of the unit. Set your computer with an IP address compliant
with the one set on the switch. Here are some examples :
■
Example 1: Switch IP address: 192.168.1.1, Netmask: 255.255.255.0
Computer IP address: 192.168.1.2, Netmask 255.255.255.0
■
Example 2: Switch IP address: 192.168.2.112, Netmask: 255.255.0.0
Computer IP address: 192.168.2.113, Netmask 255.255.0.0
Connect your computer to the switch, and launch your favorite web browser. Type the IP address of the switch in the
address field, and press enter. You'll be prompted to enter a login: Use admin in the login field, and leave the password
field blank. You reach the status page of the GigaCore switch.
