SAG-1000 web configuration

Step 1: Configure your local client

Before you configure the SAG-1000 device using its local web console, you must set a static IP address for the client used to access the console.

• Windows: Follow these steps to configure a static IP address on a client running Windows 10.
  1. Right-click the network connection icon in the notification area, and then click Open Network & Internet settings.
  2. In the right-side pane, click Change adapter options.
  3. Right-click the network connection you are using, and then click Properties.
  4. Double-click Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
  5. Select Use the following IP address, and then enter a static IP address and a subnet mask.
     Important Ensure the IP address is within the management CIDR block of the gateway device (default: 192.168.0.0/24) and does not conflict with other IP addresses. For example, you can use 192.168.0.99. A gateway or DNS configuration is not required.
  6. Click OK.
• macOS: Follow these steps to configure a static IP address on a client running macOS.
  1. On the desktop, click the System PreferencesInternet and wireless icon, and then click NetworkOpen the Network and Sharing Center.
  2. Select the network you are using, and then click Advanced.
  3. On the Ethernet settings page, click the TCP/IP tab.
  4. From the Configure IPv4 drop-down list, select Manually, and then enter a static IP address and a subnet mask.
     Important Ensure the IP address is within the management CIDR block of the gateway device (default: 192.168.0.0/24) and does not conflict with other IP addresses. For example, you can use 192.168.0.99. A router or DNS configuration is not required.

Step 2: Set a password for the initial logon

The first time you log on to the local web console, you must set a logon password.

1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect your local PC to port 2 of the SAG device.
2. On your local PC, open a web browser and enter 192.168.0.1 in the address bar.

   192.168.0.1 is the default address for the SAG-1000 local web console.

3. On your first logon, set a password.
   Store your password securely. If you forget it, you can press the RESET button to clear it.
4. Log on to the local web console.

Step 3: Configure the device

After logging on to the local web console of the SAG device, you can configure the device. The SAG-1000 device offers various features for different deployment scenarios. To connect the device to Alibaba Cloud, follow the SAG-1000 device usage workflow. For more information, see SAG-1000 usage workflow.

1. Assign port roles.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the Port Allocation tab to view the port roles.
      The SAG-1000 device comes with default port roles, which you can change based on your requirements. For more information about port roles, see Assign port roles.
   3. Click the icon next to the port you want to configure, select a port role, and then click OK.
      Important Synchronize settings to the cloudAfter changing a port role on the local web console, you must manually synchronize the settings to the cloud.
2. Configure the WAN port.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the Manage WAN Ports tab to configure the WAN port.
      By default, the WAN port's connection type is Dynamic IP, and its IP address is automatically obtained from the peer device.

      Note You can change the connection type based on your business needs. For parameter details, see Configure a WAN port.
3. Configure the LAN port.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the Manage LAN Ports tab to configure the LAN port. You can configure the LAN port based on your business needs. For parameter details, see Configure a LAN port.
      When configuring a LAN port with the Dynamic IP connection type, you can customize a private CIDR block.

      • Not selected: Lets you customize the interface IP address and DHCP address pool.
      • Custom CIDR Block: Lets you enter a custom CIDR block. The system automatically allocates an interface IP address and a DHCP address pool. You can also manually modify the allocated addresses.
      • Available CIDR block: If you have configured an on-premises route in the SAG management console, the available CIDR block is automatically retrieved and displayed for you to select. For example, 192.XX.XX.XX.
4. Configure the management port.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the Manage Management Ports tab to modify the configuration of the management port.
      The default management CIDR block for an SAG-1000 device is 192.168.0.0/24, with a default management port IP address of 192.168.0.1. You can modify this configuration as needed. For parameter details, see Configure the management port.
5. Manage routes.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the Manage Routes tab to configure a static route, BGP dynamic route, or OSPF dynamic route.
      To modify the route configuration, see the following topics for parameter details: Configure a static route, Configure an OSPF route, and Configure a BGP route.

Step 4: (Optional) Configure advanced features

The SAG-1000 device supports advanced features such as Express Connect and high availability (HA).

1. Manage Express Connect.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the ECC tab to configure an Express Connect port.
      The SAG-1000 device supports Express Connect, allowing an Express Connect link and an SAG link to serve as standby links for each other to connect to Alibaba Cloud. For configuration details, see Configure an Express Connect port.

      Note Before configuring an Express Connect port, ensure you have assigned the Express Connect port role to a port. For more information, see Assign port roles.
2. Configure HA.
   1. In the top navigation bar, click Configure.
   2. Click the HA Settings tab to configure HA.
      The SAG-1000 device supports an HA configuration to prevent single points of failure. For parameter details, see Configure device-level high availability.
