Accessing the Configuration Interface
Connect to the Configuration Interface by performing the
following steps:
1. Ensure that your computer (or other host machine) is
connected to the Management port on the TOUGHSwitch.
Note: By default, you can configure the TOUGHSwitch
via any port; however, we recommend the Management
port. (Access to the Configuration Interface can be
limited to the Management port only. You can configure
this setting on the Device tab.)
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a
static IP address on the 192.168.1.x subnet (e.g., 192.168.1.100).
3. Launch your web browser. Type https://192.168.1.20 in the
address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).
4. The login screen will appear. Enter ubnt in the Username and
Password fields. Click Login.
The Configuration Interface will appear, allowing you to customize
your settings as needed. You can enable PoE on the Ports tab.
