Accessing the Graphical User Interface
Accessing the graphical user interface (GUI) requires that the radio first be connected to power. The Power over
Ethernet (PoE) connection process describes the steps to do this. Note that the GUI will be available approximately
one minute after applying power.
The GUI can be accessed in two ways to facilitate set-up and management.
Through the local Ethernet interface (LAN)1.
Remotely through the 5 GHz wireless link2.
Via Ethernet interface or in-band over the 5 GHz Wireless link
By default, the device IP address is 192.168.1.20 and can be accessed via the Ethernet port using this IP address in
any standard Web browser. To access the device via a locally connected computer initially (on the same LAN or
directly to the Ethernet port), the computer’s IP address must be on the same subnet as the above address. Once
you have modified the IP address (static or DHCP) of the device for remote management purposes (in-band over
wireless or over the Ethernet interface), the new specified IP address must be used to access the device. This is
important to do in order to avoid IP address conflicts with other devices on the network. Current IP addresses of
different Mimosa devices on the network can be identified using the Mimosa Device Discovery tool. The default
password for the device is "mimosa". It is highly recommended to change the default password to a unique and
secured password.
