Configure the SAG-1000 device in the web console

Step 1: Configure the local client

Before you can configure the SAG-1000 device in the local web console, you must configure a static IP address for the local client.

• Windows clients: Configure a static IP address for a Windows client. Windows 10 is used in the following example.
  1. In the lower-right corner, right-click the network connection icon, and then click Network and Internet.
  2. In the right-side panel, click Change adapter settings.
  3. Right-click the connected network, and then click Properties.
  4. Double-click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
  5. Select Use the following IP address, and then enter the static IP address and subnet mask.
     Notice Make sure that the IP address you enter is falls into the management CIDR block of the SAG-1000 device (the default CIDR block is 192.168.0.0/24) and does not overlap with other IP addresses, such as 192.168.0.99. You do not need to configure the gateway or DNS settings.
     
  6. Click OK.
• Mac clients: Configure a static IP address for a Mac client.
  1. On the desktop, click the System Preferences icon, and then click Network in the Internet & Network section.
  2. Click the connected network, and then click Advanced.
  3. On the Ethernet page, click the TCP/IP tab.
  4. In the Configure IPv4 drop-down list, select Manually and enter the static IP address and subnet mask.
     Notice Make sure that the IP address you enter falls into the management CIDR block of the SAG-1000 device (the default CIDR block is 192.168.0.0/24) and does not overlap with other IP addresses, such as 192.168.0.99. You do not need to configure the router or DNS settings.
     

Step 2: Set the password

If this is your first time logging on to the web console, you must set the logon password.

1. Port 2 of the SAG-1000 device has been connected to the local client.
2. Open the browser on the connected local client and enter 192.168.0.1 in the address bar.

   192.168.0.1 is the default web console address of the SAG-1000 device.

3. If this is your first time logging on to the web console, you must set the logon password.
   Keep your password confidential. If you forget your password, press the reset button on your device to clear the password.
4. Log on to the web console.

Step 3: Configure the SAG-1000 device

After you log on to the web console of the SAG-1000 device, you can configure the device. SAG-1000 provides multiple features to meet your requirements in different deployment scenarios. For more information about how to connect private networks to Alibaba Cloud through SAG-1000, see Deploy an SAG-1000 device.

1. Assign port roles.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. To view port roles, click Port Alloc in the left-side navigation pane.
      Ports of SAG-1000 devices are assigned default roles. You can modify the port roles as needed. For more information about port roles, see Assign a role to a port.
   3. Click next to the target port, select the target port role, and then click OK to modify the port role.
      Notice When you modify a port role in the web console, the port settings of both the active and standby SAG devices are modified. After you modify the port role, restart both devices.
2. Configure a WAN port.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click WAN to configure a WAN port.
      By default, the connection type of the WAN port on the SAG-1000 device is Dynamic IP. The IP address of a WAN port is automatically obtained by the device that is connected to the WAN port.

      Note You can configure a WAN port as needed. For more information about the parameters of the WAN port, see Configure a WAN port.
3. Configure a LAN port.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click LAN to configure a LAN port. You can configure a LAN port as needed. For more information about the parameters of the LAN port, see Configure a LAN port.
      When you configure a LAN port in the web console, if the connection type of the LAN port is Dynamic IP, the SAG device allows you to enter custom CIDR blocks.

      • Unselected: allows you to enter a custom IP address for the port and set a custom Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) address pool.
      • Custom Segment: allows you to enter custom CIDR blocks. The system automatically allocates an IP address and DHCP address pool for the LAN port. You can manually modify the allocated IP address.
      • Available CIDR block: If you have configured local routes in the SAG console, the CIDR blocks are automatically displayed. You can allocate IP addresses as needed. For example, 192.XX.XX.XX in the preceding figure.
4. Configure the management port.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click Management to configure the management port.
      By default, the management CIDR block of the SAG-1000 device is 192.168.0.0/24 and the IP address of the management port is 192.168.0.1. You can configure the management port as needed. For more information about the parameters, see Configure the management port.
5. Configure the routes.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click Route to configure static routes, Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) dynamic routes, or Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) dynamic routes.
      For more information about how to configure the routes, see Add a static route, Configure OSPF routing, and Configure BGP routing.

Optional. Step 4: Advanced configurations

The SAG-1000 device supports advanced configurations such as leased line ports and high availability (HA).

1. Configure leased lines.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click ECC to configure leased line ports.
      The SAG-1000 device supports leased lines. Leased lines and SAG devices provide standby network connections for each other. For more information about how to configure leased lines, see Configure a leased line port.

      Note If you need leased line ports, make sure that you have assigned a role to the leased line port. For more information, see Assign a role to a port.
2. Configure HA.
   1. In the top navigation bar of the web console, click Setting.
   2. Click HA to configure HA.
      The SAG-1000 device supports HA configurations to continue to provide services when one SAG device fails to work. For more information about the parameters, see Configure HA for SAG devices.
