The remainder of this section describes connection and use of the radio's
built-in Device Manager. To connect to the radio and manage it via the
Device Manager, you will need the following:
• A PC with a web browser program installed.
• An Ethernet cable connected between the PC's Ethernet jack, and
the radio's Ethernet jack as shown in Figure 21. (Alternatively, a
network connection may be used, as long as the radio can be
reached via its IP address.)
• The radio's IP address. Check with your Network Administrator,
or determine the address from the radio's
screen. The default address for a factory shipped new radio is
.

• The user name and password for the radio. Check with your Net-
work Administrator, or, if a username and password have not
been set, use the factory defaults of

ble after login.)
