APPENDIX A -
Configuration page
The ALIF3000 gains all of its configuration details via AIM; local changes are not possible.
Therefore the configuration page mainly provides information only and indicates the
settings that have been enacted by the controlling AIM server.
To view the configuration page
1 Using a system connected to the same network as the ALIF3000 unit, open a web
browser and access the IP address of the ALIF3000.
• To discover the ALIF3000 unit’s main IP address:
Press
the small button on the front panel next to the
OLED screen to reveal the value for
IP Address 1 or
2
(depending on which network port(s) are used).
2
The configuration page should be displayed:
IP Address 2
10.0.20.37
–––––––––––––––
Identify unit
When clicked, these buttons cause the front panel indicators to flash to assist with
identifying the ALIF unit within a rack.
•
The
Identify Unit (short)
button flashes the indicators for five seconds.
•
The
Identify Unit (long)
button flashes the indicators for one hour but can be
overridden by clicking the Identify Unit (short) button.
Remote Support
The ALIF3000 remote support feature allows Adder technical support to connect via a
secure SSL connection, should the need arise. When you click the Enable button, the unit
will generate and display a single-use password (and port number) on the page. Attach
the unit to an internet-connected switch (using a fibre or copper link); note the resulting
IP address and pass this, together with the generated password and port number, to
Adder technical support, allowing limited direct access.
