The D621 can be configured through the WebUI. Access the WebUI by using one of the following methods:
-
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 for more information.
- Link from the Wireless table of a connected device's WebUI by clicking the name of the device to configure in the Peer Name column of that table.
- Use the device's management Wi-Fi.
- If using the AltoCommand, access the WebUI from the Devices page by clicking at the end of a device's row and clicking Connect to Device.
Some common tasks at the WebUI:
- View information about the device, such as the firmware version >AltoCommand server status, and wireless connections, on the Status tab. You can also click on a Peer-Name to access the WebUI for a connected device.
- On the Admin tab:
- Configure the location of your AltoCommand server. (Requires AltoCommand version 4.0).
- Upgrade firmware.
- Change the admin password.

- On the Wireless tab:
- Configure the role of the radio, either distribution node (DN) or client node (CN).
- If the radio is configured to use the DN role:
- Configure the radio's Channel, Golay index, and Polarity, as well as optionally configure a link to another DN, or use DN link auto-configuration.
- Configure CN links for up to 15 client nodes.
- On the LAN tab, configure MAC filtering.
- On the Network tab, configuration various networking features, such as VLANs, Spanning Tree protocol, and the management interface.
The header of the WebUI shows the Unit name of the D621 (also called the hostname), Description and Location, as well as offering a login link.
The header background changes from gray to yellow when a unit is unreachable.
