2. Switch Management
To set up the Managed Switch, the user needs to congure the Managed Switch
fornetwork management.The ManagedSwitchprovides twomanagement options:
Out-of-BandManagementandIn-BandManagement.
Out-of-Band Management
Out-of-band management is the management through Console interface.
Generally, the user will use out-of-band management for the initial switch
conguration,orwhenin-bandmanagementisnotavailable.
IMPORTANT!
The Managed Switch is shipped without IP address assigned by
default. User must assign an IP address to the Managed Switch via
the Console interface to be able to remotely access the Managed
Switch through Telnet or HTTP.
In-Band Management
In-band management refers to the management by logging in to the Managed
Switchusing Telnetor HTTP,orusing SNMPmanagement softwaretocongure the
Managed Switch. In-band management enables the management of the Managed
SwitchtoattachsomedevicestotheSwitch.Thefollowingproceduresarerequired
toenableIn-bandmanagement:
1. Logon to console
2.Assign/CongureIPaddress
3. Create a remote login account
4.EnableHTTPorTelnetserverontheManagedSwitch
In case in-band management fails due to Managed Switch conguration changes,
out-of-band management can be used for conguring and managing the Managed
Switch.

4. Terminal Setup
To congure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or
notebook computer and to serial (console) port of the Managed Switch. The
console port of the Managed Switch is DCE already, so that you can connect the
consoleportdirectlythroughPCwithouttheneedofNullModem.

A terminal program is required to make the software connection to the Managed
Switch. Windows' Hyper Terminal program may be a good choice. The Hyper
TerminalcanbeaccessedfromtheStartmenu.
1. Click STARTmenu,thenPrograms, AccessoriesandthenHyper Terminal.
2.TypeanameforopeningHyperTerminal,suchas“COM1_9600”.
3.When the following screen appears, make sure that the COM port should be
conguredas:
Baud :9600
Parity :None
Databits :8
Stop bits : 1
Flowcontrol :None

5. Logon to the Console
Once the terminal is connected to the device, power on the Managed Switch, and
theterminalwilldisplay“runningtestingprocedures”.
Then, the following message asks the login user name and password. The factory
default user name and password are as follows as the login screen in Figure 5-1
appears.

6.ConguringIPAddress
The IP address conguration commands for VLAN1 interface are listed below.
Before using in-band management, the Managed Switch must be congured with
an IP address by out-of-band management (i.e. console mode). The conguration
commands are as follows (All switch conguration prompts are assumed to be
“WGSW-52040”hereafterifnototherwisespecied):
WGSW-52040>enable
WGSW-52040#cong
WGSW-52040(cong)#interface vlan 1
WGSW-52040(Cong-if-Vlan1)#ip address 192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0
ThepreviouscommandwouldapplythefollowsettingsfortheManagedSwitch.
IPv4Address:192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

If the IP is successfully congured, the Managed Switch will apply the new IP
address setting immediately. You can access the Web interface of Managed Switch
throughthenewIPaddress.

The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the Managed
Switch. Please note the Managed Switch is congured through an Ethernet
connection. Please make sure the manager PC must be set on the same IP
subnet address.
For example, the IP address of the Managed Switch is congured with
192.168.1.254, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x
is a number between 1 and 253, except 254), and the default subnet mask is
