Chapter 6 Advanced Configuration Chapter 6: Advanced Configuration Open your web browser, enter http://192.168.1.226 in the Address field, and press the Enter key. Address Bar NOTE: The default IP address is 192.168.1.226. If the IP address is changed using DHCP, enter the assigned IP address instead of the default. The web-based utiity's login screen appears. The first time you open the utility, enter admin (the default username) in the username field, enter admin in the password field, then click OK. You can change the username and password later from the Administration tab's Password screen. Login Screen After you log in, the Setup screen appears. To access other screens, select one of the five tabs at the top of the screen: Setup, Wireless, Switch, Administration, and System Status. Each tab contains additional screens. These tabs and their screens are explained in detail below. Setup The Setup tab contains one screen, the Setup screen. The Setup screen contains basic information for the Bridge. Host Name This is the host name assigned to the Bridge. This host name will be published to your DNS server if the Bridge is configured to acquire its IP address through DHCP. In that case, Linksys recommends following company policy for host name assignment. The default name is Linksys. Device Name You may assign any device name to the Bridge. This name is used only by the Bridge administrator for identification purposes. Unique, memorable names are helpful. The default name is WET200. Wireless-G Business Ethernet Bridge Contact Enter the name of the administrator responsible for the system. Location This field is used for entering a description of where the Bridge is located, such as 3rd floor. IP Address Type Select how the WET200 will obtain its IP address, either Static IP Address (default) or Automatic Configuration-DHCP. •• Automatic Configuration-DHCP The WET200 will obtain its IP address automatically from a DHCP server. NOTE: If the DHCP server is not connected to the Bridge ports but will be accessed via the wireless interface, you must first create a wireless connection before attempting to enable DHCP on the WET200. Otherwise, the device will not be able to obtain an IP address and the webbased utility will be inaccessible. For detailed information on creating a wireless connection, see the "Wireless > Basic settings" section. •• Static IP Address To assign a static IP address to the Bridge, select this option and fill in the IP Settings fields. You should make sure that this IP address does not conflict with the IP addresses of any other devices on the network. IP Settings If you set the IP Address Type field to Static IP Address, complete the following fields. •• Local IP Address Enter the IP address of the Bridge (default 192.168.1.226) into this field. •• Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask into this field. •• Default Gateway IP address of the gateway router (default 0.0.0.0) on the current IP subnet, used to reach other IP networks. •• Primary DNS Server Enter the IP address of the DNS server (default 0.0.0.0) into the field. •• Secondary DNS Server A second DNS address (default 0.0.0.0) can be specified in this field.
