1. Connecting the Hardware
2. Setting Up the Console Server
Using the included power supply, plug the console server into the power source. We recommend
plugging the console server into a Tripp Lite UPS, PDU or Surge Suppressor.
Connect the
LAN1
port on the console server to your network; connect your serial devices to the
console server
SERIAL
ports.
Note:
If you plan to use out-of-band (OoB) dial-in access, connect the internal modem to the phone line. If you plan to use broadband OoB,
connect the access device (such as DSL modem) to
LAN2
.
The default console server IP address is 192.168.0.1 (Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0). With a Web browser
on any computer that is LAN connected to the console server:
Enter
https://192.168.0.1
into the address bar.
Note:
The LAN-connected computer must have an IP address in the same network range (192.168.0.xxx) as the console server. If this is
not convenient, you can use the ARP Ping command to set the IP address (refer to the User’s Manual or online FAQ for details). The console
server also has its DHCP client enabled by default, so it will automatically accept any network IP address assigned by any DHCP server on
your network – and will then respond at both 192.168.0.1 and its DHCP address.
Log in using the default system user name: root
and the default password:
default
. A
Welcome
screen listing the basic configuration steps
will display.
Select
System: Administration
, enter and confirm
a new
System Password
and click
Apply
.
To assign your console server a static IP address
or to permanently enable DHCP, select
System:
IP,
then
Network 1
and then check
DHCP
or
Static
for
Configuration Method
.
The B094-008-2E-M-F also has a second
Ethernet network port that can be configured as
a management gateway/LAN port (with firewall/
router isolation and DHCP server) or as a failover/
OoB access port. By default this port is inactive.
To activate broadband failover/OoB refer to the
User’s Manual, otherwise leave
Failover Interface
at its default selection, which is
None
.
