# C410/C420 bench configuration

Typically, bench configuration is not required for C410 and C420 devices. However, if bench configuration is preferable for your installation, use the following steps to connect to and configure the device.

Summary of bench configuration settings:

- Admin tab:  
    - **Location** — Recommended.
    - **Description** — Recommended.
    - **Upgrade Firmware** — As needed.
- Network tab: Review  
    - **IP Addressing mode** — Defaults to **Dynamic**.
    - **VLAN configuration** — Defaults to working values for installation out of the box. It may be best to leave them as is, until installation is verified and links are up, then update per your network plan. However, you can configure them per your network plan now, if desired. Ensure that these settings are correct.
    - **DHCP Relay (Option 82)**, **Network Services** and **SNMP** configuration — Recommended, per your network.

Connecting to a network switch that is DHCP enabled for bench configuration is easier than using a PC which requires static IP addressing.

The steps below use a temporary connection to the supplied indoor PoE injector and the WebUI for configuration.

1. Connect the C410/C420 to the PoE injector. Connect the PoE injector to an internet-connected switch or PC, and connect the PoE injector to AC power.

2. Access the WebUI of the C410/C420. In your browser's address bar, type:
   
   **https://*hostname***
   
   where *hostname* is the hostname (KB-XX-XX-XX) or IP address of the radio. See [Connecting to the AltoPlex radio](https://support.altowav.com/c410/connect-to-the-altoreach-device.html#h3) for more information.
   
     1. A warning screen displays. Click the **Advanced** button and then **Proceed to...**
     2. The WebUI opens at the **Status** tab.
3. Click on the **Admin** tab.  
     1. Determine the current Firmware version. See the [Release Notes](https://support.altowav.com/hc/en-us/sections/15202559638425-Release-Notes?hsLang=en-us) for the most current version.
        
        If a firmware upgrade is required:
        
            1. Click the **login** link in the WebUI header to log in as administrator. The default password is **admin**.

            2. Click **Upgrade Firmware**. 
                     - To upload a new firmware file from your local device: 
                               1. Click **Choose File** and browse to the location of the firmware file.
                               2. Click **Start Upgrade**.
                     - To download a new firmware file from a TFTP server: 
                               1. Click the **Remote File** tab.
                               2. For **TFTP server**, type the URL of the TFTP server.
                               3. Click **Check for Newer Firmware**.
                                  
                                  A message will indicate if the firmware on the TFTP server is newer than the firmware on the device.
                               4. If newer firmware is found, click **Start Upgrade**.
