The following options describe connecting to your router’s Ethernet port. The
AR750S has a default IP configuration for its default VLAN. To see the default
configuration, and a procedure for connecting to the GUI via the router’s
switch ports, see the AR700 Series Router Installation and Safety Guide.
Option 1: Configuring the Router before Installation
Use this procedure if:
■ You want to configure the router before installing it in your LAN.
■ You will be installing the router at a remote office or a customer site and
want to configure it first.
■ You want a dedicated management PC permanently connected to the
router.
1. Select a PC to browse to the router from
You can browse to the router from any PC that is running a supported
operating system with a supported browser installed. See “Browser and
PC Setup” on page 22 for more information.
You need to know the PC’s subnet.
2. Connect the PC to the router
Use a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect an Ethernet card on the
PC to any one of the Ethernet ports (see Figure 2).
Figure 2: Connecting a PC directly to the router
You can browse to the router through any ETH port, as long as you give that
interface an IP address (see below). These instructions assume you will use eth0
as the LAN interface.
3. Access the router’s command line interface
Access the CLI from the PC, as described in “Connecting a Terminal or PC”
on page 14.
4. Enable IP
enable ip
5. Assign the eth0 interface an IP address in the same subnet as the PC
ADD IP INTERFACE=eth0 IP=ipaddress MASK=mask
