Accessing the Command Line via the Asentria OmniDiscover program
1. From the Asentria website Documentation and Utilities CD, download the OmniDiscover program. This program will allow you to locate
devices on your network (ie: the S530) with Asentria MAC addresses, and allow you to assign the network
settings directly over the network, thus eliminating the need for the serial port connection as described above.
2. Open the OmniDiscover program. It will immediately display all Asentria devices on the network. Right clicking
on the line for this unit displays three options: Setup, Telnet and Web.
Setup
opens another window where the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway (router) can be configured
(see below). Press “OK” and these will be assigned to the unit and displayed in the previous window. (Select
this option to configure the network settings for the first time.)
Telnet
opens a connection to the device using your default Telnet client.
Web
opens an HTTP connection to the device using your default browser, if the device supports and is
configured to allow a web connection.
3. Once the network settings have been assigned, the S530 command line can be accessed via any Telnet client or
HTTP web connection.
Contact
for any questions or assistance with OmniDiscover.
