How to access ExtremeWireless Controller from GUI

The ExtremeWireless Controller (EWC) GUI is the Web-based interface for configuring, managing, logging and monitoring of each individual controller. Because the Wireless AP does not have a user interface the Wireless Assistant interface is used to configure and manage each AP.

To access the EWC connect a laptop directly to the management port using a crossover Ethernet Cable. Set a static IP address in the 192.168.10.0/24 subnet on the Ethernet port of your Laptop. Launch a web browser and make a secured http connection to EWC using the factory default Ip address of 192.168.10.1 and port5825 (http://192.168.10.1.5825)

 

the admin port is for the management port 

The default username is admin and password is abc123 for login.

 

We could configure factory default Ip address from CLI and GUI

From CLI, you could connect to controller via serial cable with a baud rate of 115200

Then, use the following syntax: 

extremenetworks.com# topology

extremenetworks.com:topology# Admin

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin# l3

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin:l3# ip 10.67.72.221/24

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin:l3# mtu 1500

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin:l3# gateway 10.67.72.1

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin:l3# apply

extremenetworks.com:topology:Admin:l3# show

Interface IP 10.67.72.221 255.255.255.0

Factory default certificate/key

Factory default IPv6 certificate/key

Static IPv6 Address:

Static IPv6 Gateway: none

MTU: 1500

Gateway: 10.67.72.1

Dynamic IPv6 Address:

1: fe80::290:bff:fe40:d8ac 64

From GUI, you could [VNS] > [Topologies] > [Admin]
