STATUS OF THE PROCEDURE
A StreamGroomer will produce different kinds of beeps at the end of these operations:
Beep
Event
Double short high-pitched beep
and then deep beep
The 5 steps described above have been successful. A status file summarizing the
configuration has been pushed on the USB key.
Several short high-pitched beeps
A strong SSH authentication has been required and the StreamGroomer is
generating its pair of public/private RSA keys during step 4.
Several long deep beeps
Step 1 has failed (USB key mount)
Single long deep beep
Step 2, 3 or 4 have failed.
If step 2 has failed, then a
sgstatus_ERROR.txt
file is pushed on the key. A
typical reason can be for instance if the StreamGroomer has found several files
starting with sgconfig).
If step 3 or 4 has failed, then a
sgstatus_<sgname>.txt
is pushed on the
key and contains a message explaining the failure.
4.4.5
Case of strong SSH authentication
In case of strong SSH authentication, the
sgstatus_<sgname>.txt
file contains the RSA public key of the StreamGroomer.
This file must be imported to the SGM to complete the setup of the secured communication link between the SGM and the
StreamGroomer.
To import the RSA public key into the SGM, connect to the SGM. With StreamView, go to the STREAMGROOMERS section
and select the StreamGroomer in the tree menu.
In the Parameters tab, click on the button
Import
. Browse to search the
sgstatus_<sgname>.txt
and select the file. Refer
to the StreamView User Guide for further details on how to secure the link between the SGM and the StreamGroomer.

Installing the SG3412 on the network
When the equipment is turned on for the first time, the bypasses of the pairs LAN1/WAN1 and LAN2/WAN2 are enabled.
This means that SG acts as a straight cable: the network packets go directly from one LAN port to the WAN port of a pair
(and the other way around) without being processed by the SG. No statistics are produced by the SG in Boot mode.
5.1
CONNECTING THE SG3412
The SG3412 manages 1 or 2 WAN access links.
5.1.1
Simple configuration – 2 WAN links
The figure below shows how the SG is connected to the switches and the routers of a company.
If only one link is to be managed, use the LAN1 and WAN1 interfaces and do not connect any cable on the LAN2 and WAN2
interfaces.
