Configuring the Midspan
The SRPM12 has a graphical web interface for management over the network using a web browser. A
network administrator can manage and monitor the Midspan from over the LAN or the internet. This
section describes how to configure the Midspan’s functions including: SNMP Settings, PoE Settings,
System Settings, and Device Status.

IP network. The computer and the Midspan must also be on the same network subnet in order to connect

computer must have an IP address of 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 2 and 254) with a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
1. Open a web browser. (Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher is recommended)
2. Enter the IP address http://192.168.0.1 (the default IP address of the Midspan) into the address field
and press . (Figure 15)
