6. Configuration
This section covers some tasks that are not fully covered in the User Manual
(see section Introduction, page 3).
6.1 Accessing the Configuration Interface
There are two configuration options:
1. Graphical User Interface (GUI), using an Ethernet connection.
2. Command Line Interface (CLI), using a console cable.
6.1.1. Graphical User Interface
For full details, download this document:
http://www.wireless-tek.com/Uploads/download/1583371174.pdf
When in Factory Reset state, the Switch is set to use the default IP address
of 192.168.0.1.
1. Make sure that your host system is connected via Ethernet
to the Switch.
2. Configure the Ethernet adapter on your host system with a
static IP address in the 192.168.0.x subnet.
e.g. 192.168.0.10
3. Launch your web browser and type http://192.168.0.1
in the address field. Press enter (PC) or return (Mac).

4. Enter the login credentials.
The default credentials are:
Username: admin
Password: admin
6.1.2. Command Line Interface

6.2 Saving Current Configuration
Configuration changes are not permanent, unless saved.
To preserve a configuration change to be used on the next boot-up, save the
current configuration using the System Configuration / Save Current
Configuration menu option.

WI-PMS310GF-Alien QSG Page 9 of 16
6.3 DHCP IP Address
These instructions are to configure the device to obtain its network
configuration (IP address, subnet mask, gateway address) from a DHCP
server on the same LAN.
After this has been done, consult the DHCP server’s list of leases to learn the
IP address of the device.
1. Select the IP Basic Configuration / IP Address Configuration
menu selection.
2. Set Line Item to 1
Set DHCP Client to Enable
Click Set IP Address/DHCP Client
3. The Switch will now query the LAN DHCP server and move to a new
IP address. Consult the DHCP server’s list of leases to learn the new
IP address of the Switch.

6.4 Network Time Client Setup
By default the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) client is disabled. To
enable:
1. Select the System Configuration / SNMP Configuration menu
selection.
2. Set Enable Status to Enable,
Set the Time Zone
Enter one or more of the Server IP addresses shown below.
Click Apply

WI-PMS310GF-Alien QSG Page 11 of 16
3. Select the System Configuration / Basic Information menu option
You should see the correct time.
If the time is incorrect, that indicates the Switch is unable to connect to
the Internet. Start by checking the IP Basic Configuration settings to
check the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are set
correctly.
6.5 AAA
Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA) features in the switch
can be used as follows:
•
TACACS+: External authentication for switch management
logins.
•
802.1x: External authentication for user network access.
6.5.1. TACACS+
The default behaviour is that switch management interface logins are
authenticated against the internal switch database, as configured in System
Configuration / User Management.
Alternatively, these logins can be authenticated against an external
TACACS+ server.
WARNING:
When you enable & apply TACACS+ authentication,
management login to the switch will ONLY use
TACACS+. Only save the configuration after confirming
you can still login.

WI-PMS310GF-Alien QSG Page 12 of 16
1. Setup a TACACS+ server accessible by the switch. Shown below is
a simple TACACS+ configuration file that will authenticate switch
management logins with Username/Password credentials of
admin/admin.
# See man(5) tac_plus.conf for more details
# Define where to log accounting data, this is the default.
accounting file = /var/log/tac_plus.acct
# This is the key that clients have to use to access Tacacs+
key = testing123
# We also can define local users and specify a file where data
is stored.
# That file may be filled using tac_pwd
group = admins {
cmd = enable { permit .* }
cmd = show { permit .* }
cmd = ping { permit .* }
}
user = admin {
member = admins
pap = des tColoimj9QXZc
chap = cleartext admin
enable = des tColoimj9QXZc
}
2. Select the AAA Configuration / Tacacs+ Configuration menu
option and setup similar to as below and click Apply.

WI-PMS310GF-Alien QSG Page 13 of 16
3. In a new browser window, go to the URL of your switch and confirm
you can still login.
If OK: Then select the System Configuration / Save Current
Configuration menu option and click Save.
Otherwise: Resolve the TACACS+ problem.
6.5.2. 802.1x (EAP)
The default switch behaviour can be changed such that devices (e.g. PCs)
plugged into specified ports have no network connectivity until authorized.

WI-PMS310GF-Alien QSG Page 14 of 16
6.6 SNMP and MIBs
The Switch supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). The
Management Information Base (MIB) definition files are available from:
https://ubwh.com.au/documents/WiTek-MIBs.zip
In addition, the Switch can send alerts to a TRAP server.
Shown below are some example screen captures from a Windows program
called PowerSNMP Free Manager available from
https://www.dart.com/pages/powersnmp-free-manager
