The corresponding link-local IPv6 address is also available and printed on the sticker under the
Mediatrix 3300.
You can now access the Mediatrix 3300 web interface. Refer to the
Software Configuration Guide
for more details.
IPv6 Link Local Address Configuration
If there is no DHCPv6 server or IPv6 router in your network, you can use the link local address to contact the
unit. Note that the Mediatrix 3300 IPv6 interface is disabled by default.
1.
With a 10/100 Hub and two 10/100 BaseT Ethernet RJ-45 straight cables, connect both cables to
the Hub; one of them is connected into the
ETH5
connector. The other cable links the computer to
the Hub.
2.
Power on the Mediatrix 3300 by connecting the other end of the power cord to an electrical outlet.
The electrical outlet must be installed near the Mediatrix 3300 so that it is easily accessible.
3.
Insert a small, unbent paper clip into the
RESET/DEFAULT
hole located at the rear of the Mediatrix
3300.
The
Power
LED will start blinking, and after a few seconds, all the LEDS will start blinking. Release
the paper clip after all the LEDs start blinking and before they all stop blinking (between 7-11
seconds).
This procedure is called a partial reset. After a partial reset is performed, the Mediatrix 3300 enables
its link local IPv6 address. Refer to
for details on the partial reset
procedure.
The corresponding link-local IPv6 address is also available and printed on the sticker under the
Mediatrix 3300.
4.
Proceed with accessing the Mediatrix 3300’s web interface by using the unit’s link local address.
The unit’s link local address is printed on a sticker under the unit.
The link local address can be determined by using the following pattern: [fe80::290:f8ff:feXX:XXXX]
where XXXXXX are the last 6 digits of the unit’s MAC address. Example: The link local address for
the Mediatrix 3300 with MAC address 00:90:F8:12:34:56 would be
[fe80::290:f8ff:fe12:3456]
.
LAN Interface Access
You can access the Mediatrix 3300 via web and SNMP on the unit’s private LAN interface at the address
192.168.0.10. In that case, you must set up your PC to use the private IP address
192.168.0.11
.
1.
Power on the Mediatrix 3300 by flipping the power switch. If this is the very first time you are
installing the Mediatrix 3300, it will restart twice.
You can now access the Mediatrix 3300 web interface. Refer to the
Software Configuration Guide
for more details.
Note:
On Windows, a scope ID needs to be added to the link local address ([fe80::290:f8ff:fe12:3456
%11
]).
You can find this number by executing the ‘ipconfig’ command in a command prompt. Note the number at
the end of the IPv6 default Gateway for the interface used to contact the unit.
On Linux, the scope identifier may be the link name or the interface number. The interface number can be
determined through the Linux command line.
