38 CHAPTER 2: INSTALLING THE W EBCACHESetting Up Using theWeb InterfaceYou can setup the Webcache for management via the Web interface byusing a Web browser on a management workstation that is connected tothe Webcache over your test network, or directly using a cross-over cable.Setting Up Over the Test NetworkThe Webcache is pre-configured with a default IP address, which is withinthe range of addresses reserved by the IETF for private IP networks. Thisdefault address allows you to run the Web interface without any initialconfiguration of IP addresses. The default IP address of the Webcache is192.168.1.253.Figure 12 Setting Up Over the Test NetworkTo connect the Webcache to the test network: The client machine must be in the same subnet as the Webcache to beable to access it using the default IP address. You must have an IP stack correctly installed on the client machine.You can check this by trying to browse the World Wide Web; if youcan browse, an IP stack is installed. If you do not have access to theWorld Wide Web, you can check that the IP stack is installed bypinging another device in your network. For more information, see“Pinging Other Devices” on page 91.Setting Up Using a Cross-over CableAlternatively, you can directly connect a client machine to the Webcacheby attaching a cross-over cable to the LAN port on the rear panel. Formore information, see “Webcache — Rear View Detail” on page 20.Figure 13 Setting Up Using a Cross-over CableClient Machine WebcacheSuperStack 3®3C16116Webcache 3000Power/Self testActivityCache Storage Status green = okyellow = failed green = 100 Mbpsyellow = 10 MbpsLink Status31 2Cache Storage Status32Link StatusActivityLANLANLAN WANSwitch/HubClient MachineClient Machine WebcacheSuperStack 3®3C16116Webcache 3000Power/Self testActivityCache Storage Status green = okyellow = failed green = 100 Mbpsyellow = 10 MbpsLink Status31 2Cache Storage Status32Link StatusActivityLANLANLAN WANConnected Using a Cross-over CableClient Machine
