Advanced configuration with QubeVu Manager

The QubeVu Manager is an optional set of software tools provided to enable advanced configuration. They are not
needed in most cases. They are recommended for use only by a technical systems administrator.

This introduction is not intended as a replacement for complete documentation. Please refer to the QubeVu
Manager Guide for a complete guide to the tools. The latest version of the Manager Guide, along with all other
product documentation, can be downloaded from 

www.ricelake.com

.

3.1.1

Define QubeVu on your Network

QubeVu Manager is accessed via the 

iDimension 100

’s IP address over a wired Ethernet connection. To access

these tools the 

iDimension 100

 must be defined on the network.

The 

iDimension 100

 can be installed as a network device and can be configured with a static IP address or by using

DHCP. Talk to the network administrator to determine the best approach for the enterprise network.

The 

iDimension 100

 is shipped with a dual IP configuration. The network interface will lease an IP address from

any available DHCP server. However, it also has a fixed, fail-safe IP address of 169.254.1.1. If DHCP is preferred,
the network administrator can share the IP address leased by the 

iDimension 100

.

• Configure PC network settings to connect to 

iDimension 100

 on 169.254.1.1

• Connect 

iDimension 100

 to a computer using a standard Ethernet cable

• Configure the computer’s Ethernet interface with an IP address of 169.254.1.10.

• Consult with the network administrator if unsure how to change the computer’s IP address.

Verify connectivity

Verify the communication between the 

iDimension 100

 and the computer.

Use the 

ping

 command to confirm connectivity.

ping 169.254.1.1

If the ping command does not show that the 

iDimension 100

, is responding this may be due to an issue with the

network configuration. Make sure that wireless networking is turned off and then try the ping command again. If
this is still unsuccessful contact the network administrator for further assistance.

Access QubeVu Manager

To view the QubeVu Manager home page, open an Internet browser and enter http://169.254.1.1. If using DHCP,
remember to replace 169.254.1.1 with the IP address provided by the network administrator.
