Accessing the Web Interface
Once a dial-up connection has been established, you can access the Web interface or
start a VNC session using the following IP address:
https://99.99.99.99
You can now login to the Web interface (and/or VNC session) normally. Note that the
remote machine (the one you dialed from) is automatically assigned the IP address
99.99.99.100 for the PPP session. This, and the IP address of the SV1115IPEXT, cannot
be modified. The following TCP/IP port numbers are assigned for a PPP connection,
regardless of the settings configured in the Web interface for the LAN or WAN ports:
HTTPS: 443
VNC (clear-text): 5900
VNC (SSL secured): 15900
SSH: 22
Performance Notes
• All images over the PPP connection will be gray scale to conserve bandwidth. If
other users are connected while a PPP session is active, their screens will be in gray
scale as well. When PPP in inactive, color is automatically re-enabled.
• Some areas of the screen may not be updated as frequently as others, and
animations or other auto-updating areas of the screen may appear out-of-focus
or “blocky” as a result. Since the area around the mouse pointer is refreshed most
frequently, hold the pointer over an area to improve its clarity.
• It may be beneficial to minimize any unnecessary icons, backgrounds, or other
clutter on the host computer’s desktop to make the dial-up connection as efficient
as possible.
• When the modem feature is enabled, you can use a “line modem” connection on the
serial port using a serial cable to begin a PPP session. If you are using the DTE Serial
port on the front panel, use a null modem serial cable. If you have disconnected the
modem and are using the DCE Serial port on the rear panel for the PPP connection,
use a straight through serial cable. When the modem is not actively connected, you
can begin a PPP session at up to 460 kbps. To hang up and re-connect the modem,
end the PPP session.
• If you need to configure the device over a serial connection while the modem
option is enabled, connect a serial cable (see immediately above for instructions on
what type of cable to use for the port you are accessing on the SV1115IPEXT) and begin
a terminal session following the instructions under Terminal Configuration Using a Serial
Cable in this manual. Once connected, you will see the following message:
