Configuring a Landslide Test Server
Follow this procedure to configure the management port for each Landslide TS. After the
platforms for the system, including the Landslide Manager, have been configured,
continue with the instructions in
Chapter 5, “Getting Started.”
To configure a Landslide Test Server:
1
Establish a telnet session with the Landslide TS and configure the management port
(see
“Management Port Configuration” ).
2
Remove the standard Ethernet cable from the management port.
3
Connect the Landslide to your LAN via a standard Ethernet connection from the
management port to a router or switch.
Connect the test ports to the test network via a router or directly to the SUT.
Management Port Configuration
Refer to the applicable procedure if you are using IPv4 or IPv6 addressing on the
management network.

The procedures in this section use the following abbreviations:
•

•
TS – Landslide Test Server
•
TAS+TS – A combination system comprised of both a Landslide Manager
and Landslide Test Server running on the same server
Follow the procedure in this section to power up a Landslide platform for the first time.
This initial configuration procedure designates and configures the management port for
each platform. The default test port configuration can be modified using the
Test Server
Configuration window within the application (see Managing Your System > Test Server
> Managing Your Test Servers in the Help documentation).
The management port is dedicated to communications with the Landslide Manager
(Landslide Test Server platform) or with the user's client PC (Landslide Manager
platform), and is not used for testing on these platforms. The default name and default
address of the management port is eth0 and 192.168.0.100, respectively. Use a default
mask of 255.255.255.0.
