1
Connect a 10baseT or 100baseT Ethernet cable to the TC2201E.
2
Apply power to any connected SCSI or iSCSI devices.
3
After all attached devices have gone through their power up routines,
boot up the TC2201E.
4
Turn on the host computer.
5
If the IP address for the TC2201E is known, open the computer’s Web
browser and enter the IP address into the Address field. The factory
default of the TC2201E has DHCP enabled. To disable DHCP, refer to
appendix C, Using the Command Line Interface for information on
disabling the DHCP option.
If you do not know the IP address of the TC2201E, then connect to the
TC2201E using the serial (RS-232) connection (a 3-pin serial cable is
included with the TC2201E). Current settings can be viewed and
changed from the Ethernet Configuration Menu of the serial
interface.
Note:
For manual IP address configuration, the TC2201E has a
default fixed IP address of 1.1.1.1 but this is technically not a
valid IP address. For remote access from WAN or Internet
locations, the IP address must be changed to a valid IP
address. Valid IP addresses have the form x.x.x.x where each x
is an integer in the range of 0 to 255.
Note:
To access the QVM user interface, the TC2201E must be
assigned an IP address.
Note:
If the TC2201E is to use a static IP address, the default IP
address 1.1.1.1 should be changed to an address that is
appropriate for the IP network it will reside on. Note that the
default IP address can be used in a direct connection between
the TC2201E and the host computer via a crossover Ethernet
cable.
