Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 Gateway
Connecting the Gateway to a Power Source
Connecting the Gateway to a Power Source
This section describes how to supply power to the gateway. The gateway is equipped with an
autoswitching power supply that supports 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz.
Warning
Never defeat the ground conductor or operate the equipment in the absence of a suitably installed
ground conductor. Contact the appropriate electrical inspection authority or an electrician if you are
uncertain that suitable grounding is available.
Procedure
Step 1
Plug a power cord into the power socket on the rear panel of the gateway.
Step 2
Connect the power cable to a grounded AC outlet.
Step 3
Turn the power on.
Accessing the Gateway Administrator Interface
The Gateway Administrator is a web interface that allows you to view and configure the gateway
hardware and application parameters. You can use the gateway interface to:
•
Set administrative parameters to define access to the gateway
•
Set gateway application parameters that specify how the gateway processes incoming and outgoing
calls
•
Set chassis operating parameters for Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 Gateway modules
installed in the top slot of a Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 chassis
Before You Begin
These are the requirements for accessing the gateway Administrator web interface:
•
A Java-compliant browser. Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5 or later is recommended.
•
The gateway IP address or a web link to the gateway.
•
Administrator level-access
•
The required user name and password.
Note
For first-time installation, you must assign an IP address to the gateway using a serial port connection
before you can access the web interface. For more information, see the
“Setting the IP Address” section
on page 2-11
.
Procedure
