Configuring the Router

The Siemens Business Class Router family of products provides two user interfaces: a Web Management
Interface and a console-based Command Line Interface (CLI). The Web Management Interface uses an HTTP
server housed in the router. Using this server, you can connect to and manage the router using your Web
browser. The Web Management Interface is accessible through most HTML browsers, though Internet
Explorer 4.0 or Netscape 4.0 and higher are recommended. Refer to the Technical Reference Guide for details
on managing the router through the CLI.

Establish Connection

To establish a connection from your computer to the router through your Web browser:

1. Open your Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator Web browser.

2. In the Address bar, enter the default router IP address: 192.168.254.254. This displays the Login Dialog

page.

3. Enter the administrative User name and Password. The default settings are User name: superuser and

Password: admin. This displays the Router Information page.
