Configuration and Management
When the installation of the L13 is complete (as described in the Quick Installation Guide), the internal Web Based
Management User Interface (WBM) is available for configuration and status control. This chapter provides detailed
information about configuration options and management of the L13 using the WBM.
3.1
Access and Login to the Web User Interface
The WBM can be accessed locally from a PC connected via the Ethernet LAN port or via the WiFi interface.
Note
:
First time setup must be done via an Ethernet LAN port as the WiFi interface in the L13 is secured by default.
When accessing the WBM, the following Web browsers are supported:
Internet Explorer® 5.0 or higher
Safari® 1.3 or higher
Firefox® 1.0 or higher
Opera® 8 or higher
Start a Web browser on a PC connected to the L13 and type or
in the Address (URL) field.
Note:
If you change the internal IP address (192.168.1.1) on the L13, you will then need to use the new address to
access the Web pages.

If your computer is running an operating system that supports UPnP, such as Windows XP, you can easily add
the computer to your home network and access the WBM directly from within Windows.
