Accessing the EdgeOS Configuration Interface

The EdgeOS® configuration interface can be accessed via DHCP or static IP address assignment. By default, eth1 is set up as a DHCP client, while eth0 is assigned a static IP address of 192.168.1.1. To configure the EdgeRouter, proceed to the appropriate section: DHCP or “Static IP Address”.

DHCP

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from eth 1 on the Edge Router to a LAN segment that has an existing DHCP server.

2. To check the IP address of the Edge Router, use one of the following methods:

• Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the EdgeRouter based on its MAC address (on the label).
• Let the EdgeRouter obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see which IP address was assigned.
