3 Managing IQSW-IP10
This chapter guides you through management and configuration of IQSW-IP10.
Your IQsocket IQSW-IP10 is equipped ith an internal eb server, hich
provides an easy to use, intuitive and convenient ay of management. You can
both set up configuration and operation parameters and get information about
device’s status. There is also support for SNMP protocol, allo ing to integrate
your IQSW-IP10 into any SNMP management suite.
In order to access the eb interface, it is necessary to setup IP net ork
address on your PC properly.
3.1 Setting IP addresses
Default IP address of the IQsocket IQSW-IP10 is 192.168.0.100, net ork mask
255.255.255.0.
In order to access your IQSW-IP10, it is necessary to setup IP address of your
computer, connected to the same Ethernet net ork as the IQSW-IP10 properly
– in this case set the IP address of the net ork adapter to 192.168.11, mask
255.255.255.0.
You can also change the IP address of your IQSW-IP10 using IQLocator utility,
see chapter 3.5 for more information.
3.2 Managing by web browser
Once you have properly set IP address of your PC, open the address of your
IQSW-IP10 (default 192.168.0.100) in your favorite internet bro ser:
If everything is ok, status page ill be displayed.

3.2.2 Network configuration
Here you can configure net orking and security parameters:

©2011 IQtronic, Ltd
Page 11 of 36
Explanation of parameters:
IP address
You can setup IP net orking parameters such as IP address, Network mask
Default Gateway, DNS servers; please ensure to enter proper values. Please
note it is necessary to define a fixed IP address even if case you are using a
DHCP environment.
Note…
When your local network is using private addresses behind
a NAT router and you would like to make your IQSW-IP10
accessible from the Internet, it is necessary to setup port
mapping (forwarding, server rule) in your router for the IP
address assigned to IQSW-IP10 and selected ports, e.g.
port TCP 80 for accessing web interface.
SOHO example: Your net ork contains a modem/router ith NAT for internet
access, having IP address 192.168.1.254. Simply find an unused IP address
from the private net ork range it use (192.168.1.1-192.168.1.253) e.g.
192.168.1.200, double check it is not used e.g. by using Ping command from
your PC:
C:\>ping 192.168.1.200
Pinging 192.168.1.200 ith 32 bytes of data:
Request timed out.
Then assign the 192.168.1.200 to the IQSW-IP10 by either IQLocator utility or
by eb interface and use address of the router (192.168.1.254) in both
Gate ay and DNS fields.
NTP setup
IQSW-IP10 can synchronize its clock from an NTP (Net ork Time Protocol)
server, please don’t forget also to define time zone. Please note NTP feature
ill ork only if IQSW-IP10 ill have access to the Internet.
Note…
It is highly recommended define NTP properly and allow
your IQSW-IP10 accessing the Internet; otherwise logging
and scheduler feature can’t work properly.

Password protection
You can change/define a login username and pass ord for protecting access to
eb interface. It comes ith no pass ord by default.
Note…
If you want to disable password protection, enter blank
login password.
You can also activate exception from pass ord protection for pages status.xml
and/or status/html – hen exceptions are active, those pages ill be then
al ays available ithout pass ord, hich is useful for further processing of the
status information e.g. by scripts.
HTTP port
It is possible to change port for the eb interface from default value 80 by
entering ne value to HTTP port field.
SNMP
SNMP can be deactivated by unchecking the SNMP checkbox, it is active by
default. You can change pass ords for SNMP read and write communities
(default value is “public”). When there is an output control event resulting from
assessment of automatic packet loss rules – the atchdog feature; IQSW-IP10
can send SNMP trap messages to defined IP address besides operating the
relay of the socket, simply check particular check boxes Relay and/or Send
TRAP.
The SNMP time for restart defines ho long is socket turned off hen restart
command is issued via SNMP.
Add og events
You can select, hich events to rite into the event log: Power UP ill rite
event at every device startup and time has been successfully synchronized
from NTP server; thernet LINK ill rite event at every time hen Ethernet
link has been established.
Output socket state after startup
You can choice hich state ill have output socket after device ill be po ered
on: to be off, on, or to remember last state before device has been turned
off/po er has been lost.

3.2.3 Test ru es – watchdog function
You can configure here automatic atch dog function based on assessment of
ICMP packet lost to selected IP host:
Basically, you can define up to three test rules, t o ith numerical IP address
of evaluated host, third rule can be defined using host name, and it’s IP
address ill be resolved via DNS. Each rule is sending periodically ICMP test
packets to the host and hen number of received ICMP replies is lo er than
allo ed packet loss, rule ill generate request for output control event, hich

©2011 IQtronic, Ltd
Page 14 of 36
can lead to restart of the output socket, sending of SNMP trap or both,
depending on configuration. Finally, output control event is performed using
logical OR or logical AND operations over the results (output control event
requests) of particular rules.
Defining ru es
Each rule can be enabled or disabled by checking the checkbox. Enter IP
address (Rule 1, Rule 2) or host name in case of the Rule 3, then size of ICMP
frames, maximum allo ed packet loss in % and Packet timeout interval, time
ho long ill device ait for ans ers from the host – ICMP ans ers coming
later that the Packet timeout ill be considered as lost.
Note…
If you set Packet timeout to 0 (zero) value, device will use
the value of Interval for send test packet as the Packet
timeout interval.
Ru es eva uation
You can define periodicity of sending test ICMP packets by entering it into
Interval for send test packet field ith allo ed range 2-20 seconds.
Interval for next test is time delay till testing ill begin after device has been
started up or a rule has been activated (packet loss to a host detected).
You can limit maximum number of consecutive restart attempts by setting
Maximum consecutive restarts parameter to prevent continuous restarting e.g.
if there is a serious problem preventing target host to be recovered back by a
restart via po er cycling.
Restart socket hold time determines time interval ho long is cut po er of the
output socket during a restart attempt.

Number of packets to evaluate represents ho many test packets is used for
evaluation of packet loss.
Rules evaluation allo s to choose hen an output control event (restart and/or
SNMP trap) ill be performed – in case of selected OR, it ill be performed
hen ANY from rules is positive; hile AND require that ALL rules must be
positive.

Manua contro
Simply click to the buttons to turn on, turn off and restart (change current
state to opposite one temporary for given number of seconds).
Schedu er
This feature allo s you to schedule output socket status, up to 50 records are
supported.
Scheduler function use date/time synchronized by NTP protocol, so your IQSW-
IP10 must have access to the Internet (or to an NTP server located ithin your
private net ork), see also chapter 3.2.2.
Each scheduler record defines target socket state at given time. It is allo ed to
manually control the socket hile scheduler is active – each change is done
only at particular time.
Each scheduler record is having follo ing structure:
DOW,…DOW,HH:MM, action
Where:
o DOW means Day of eek, coded as first t o letters of English day
names: Mo, Tu, We, Th, Fr, Sa, Su;
o HH:MM means time in form of hour:minute in 24h format;
o Action means target socket state – off, on.
