CHAPTER 2 The Web Configurator 2.1 Overview The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy VMG setup and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 8.0 and later versions or Mozilla Firefox 3 and later versions or Safari 2.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels. In order to use the web configurator you need to allow: • Web browser pop-up windows from your VMG. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2. • JavaScript (enabled by default). • Java permissions (enabled by default). 2.1.1 Accessing the Web Configurator 1 Make sure your VMG hardware is properly connected (refer to the Quick Start Guide). 2 Launch your web browser. If the VMG does not automatically re-direct you to the login screen, go to http://192.168.1.1. 3 A password screen displays. To access the administrative web configurator and manage the VMG, type the default username admin and password 1234 in the password screen and click Login. If advanced account security is enabled (see Section 29.2 on page 225) the number of dots that appears when you type the password changes randomly to prevent anyone watching the password field from knowing the length of your password. If you have changed the password, enter your password and click Login. Figure 6 Password Screen 4 The following screen displays if you have not yet changed your password. Enter a new password, retype it to confirm and click Apply. VMG3925-B10B User's Guide 21
