2.0. Setting up the Voisus Server
To complete the setup you will need the following hardware:
• monitor
• keyboard
• power cord
• Category 5e cable or better
• network connection
Follow these steps to install the server and assign an IP address.
1. Connect the server to a monitor and keyboard. Note that a monitor and keyboard are only
necessary for initial software configuration.
2. Connect the server’s Ethernet interface(s) to the DIS network (linking to other servers).
See ‘Networking’ section in this document for guidance.
3. Connect to power.
4. Log in with the following:
Username:
root
Password:
abcd1234
5. The server will not have an IP address without a DHCP network connection. To set an IP
address, type:
ace-net-config -a xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -n yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
where ‘
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
’ is the IP address and ‘
yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy
’ is the subnet mask.
This sets the IP address and netmask for
Eth0
which is used to access the Remote Man-
agement System (RMS) via a web browser.
6.
Optional
: For more network setup options type:
ace-net-config -h
7. To activate the changes reboot the server by typing:
reboot
8. Once you have configured Eth0, you can use RMS to make additional changes to the
network settings.
9. Using a computer on the network with a web browser, open a browser and in the address
bar type in the IP address that was set in step 5 above.
Note: Depending on your web browser and browser version, the browser may show a
failed connection due to a self signed security certificate. Bypass the warning by following
the prompts to add a security exception.
