GUI
To begin using the HiveManager GUI, you must first configure the MGT interface to be accessible on the network,
cable HiveManager and your management system (that is, your computer) to the network, and then make an HTTP
connection from your system to the MGT interface.
Besides HiveManager and your management system, you need two or three Ethernet cables and a serial cable (or
"null modem"). The Ethernet cables can be standard cat3, cat5, cat5e, or cat6 cables with T568A or T568B
terminations and RJ-45 connectors. The serial cable must comply with the RS-232 standard and terminate on the
HiveManager end with a female DB-9 connector. (For more details, see
"Ethernet and Console Ports" on page 91
.)
The GUI requirements for the management system are as follows:
•
Minimum screen resolution of 1280 x 1024 pixels
•
Standard browser—Aerohive recommends Internet Explorer v7.0 or Mozilla Firefox v2.0.0 or later—with Flash
v9.0 or later, which is required for viewing charts with dynamically updated HiveAP alarms and wireless client
data
Your management system also needs a VT100 terminal emulation program, such as Tera Term Pro
©
(a free terminal
emulator) or Hilgraeve Hyperterminal
®
(provided with Windows
®
95 to Windows XP operating systems).
You also need an order ID or, for a physical HiveManager appliance, a license key. You can obtain these by sending an
email request to Aerohive Support at
. Include your sales order ID and—for a physical
HiveManager appliance or HiveManager Virtual Appliance—a HiveManager system ID. Aerohive will send you back an
order ID or license key.
Changing Network Settings
To connect HiveManager to the network, you must first set the IP address/netmask of its MGT interface so that it is
in the subnet to which you plan to cable it. To do this, you can use the HiveManager console port.
1. Connect the power cable to a 100 – 240-volt power source, and turn on HiveManager. The power switch is on the
back panel of the device.
2. Connect one end of an RS-232 serial cable to the serial port (or COM port) on your management system.
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the male DB-9 console port on HiveManager.
4. On your management system, run a VT100 emulation program using the following settings:
•
Bits per second (baud rate): 9600
•
Data bits: 8
•
Parity: none
•
Stop bits: 1
•
Flow control: none
5. Log in by entering the default user name (admin) and password (aerohive).
6. The HiveManager CLI shell launches. To change network settings, enter
1
(1
Network Settings and
Tools)
, and then enter
1
again
(1 View/Set IP/Netmask /Gateway/DNS Settings)
.
7. Follow the instructions to configure the IP address and netmask for the MGT interface, its default gateway, the
HiveManager host name and domain name, and its primary DNS server.
Note:
HiveManager has two Ethernet interfaces—MGT and LAN. You can put just the MGT interface on the
network and use it for all types of traffic, or you can use both interfaces—which must be in different
subnets—and separate HiveManager management traffic (MGT) from HiveAP management traffic (LAN).
Note:
The default IP address/netmask for the MGT interface is 192.168.2.10/24. The default gateway IP
address is 192.168.2.1. The LAN interface is disabled by default and does not have a default IP address.
You can define network settings for the LAN interface through the HiveManager GUI after you log in.
