TippingPoint 110/330 Overview
CAUTION:
Be sure to release the power button as soon as the unit begins the shutdown sequence. If you
hold the button for 4 seconds, the unit will perform a hard reset and power off
without
performing a
graceful shutdown, which may result in loss of data.
Perform a hard reset
only
in case of emergency, when the standard shutdown procedure fails.
Setup Wizard
After you have powered on, the TippingPoint setup wizard displays on the COM port terminal. The wizard
prompts you to perform basic configuration tasks and periodically input information. You can run the
wizard through one of the following processes:
•
Out-of-the-Box Experience (OBE) Terminal Setup Wizard — Runs when the setup wizard is activated for
the first time or later with the
S E T U P
command. This wizard is run on a serial port connected system,
such as a workstation or laptop.
•
Additional Configuration — After running the setup wizard using the serial terminal, you can configure
the system using subsequent setup commands through the Command Line Interface (CLI).
See the
TippingPoint Command Line Interface Reference
for detailed instructions.
NOTE:
When using the command line interface, configure the terminal emulation package to transmit a
Ctrl-H character when the Backspace key is pressed.
USB Update and Restore
The TippingPoint 110/330 devices support TOS updates and snapshot restorations from update and
snapshot files stored on a USB thumb drive. The device must be unconfigured or reset to pre-OBE factory
settings.
1.
Ensure that the desired TOS update or snapshot file with a
.pkg
extension is available in the top level
directory of the USB drive.
2.
With the device powered off, insert the USB drive.
3.
Power on the device.
The device boots up and searches for the update or snapshot file and begins installation of the file.
4.
Allow the device to complete installation and reboot.
If an update package and a snapshot file are both present on the device, the update package is installed
first. The device reboots, and then the snapshot file is installed, and the device reboots a second time.
