Establishing a Remote Connection to the Web Browser Interface

The AT-GS950/8 switch is shipped with a pre-assigned IP address of
192.168.1.1.

After your initial login, Allied Telesis suggests that you assign a new IP
address to your switch. To manually assign an IP address to the switch,
refer to “Configuration of IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway Address”
on page 26.
To configure the switch to obtain its IP configuration from a
DHCP server, refer to “DHCP Client Configuration” on page 35.

Whether you use the pre-assigned IP address or assign a new one, you
must set your local PC to the same subnet as the switch.

To start a web browser management session, perform the following
procedure:

1. Start your web browser.

2. In the URL field of the browser, enter 192.168.1.1. This is the default

IP address of the switch. See Figure 1.
