D-Link xStack DXS-3350SR Installation & User Manual - Introduction
DXS-3350SR Gigabit Layer 3 Switch
Introduction
All software functions of the DXS-3350SR can be managed, configured and monitored via the embedded web-based
(HTML) interface. The Switch can be managed from remote stations anywhere on the network through a standard browser
such as Netscape Navigator/Communicator or Microsoft Internet Explorer. The browser acts as a universal access tool and
can communicate directly with the Switch using the HTTP protocol.
The Web-based management module and the Console program (and Telnet) are different ways to access the same internal
Switching software and configure it. Thus, all settings encountered in web-based management are the same as those found
in the console program.
Login to Web Manager
To begin managing your Switch, simply run the browser you have installed on your computer and point it to the IP address
you have defined for the device. The URL in the address bar should read something like: http://123.123.123.123, where the
numbers 123 represent the IP address of the Switch.
NOTE: The Factory default IP address for the Switch is 10.90.90.90.
